Great fun. Food was good a great selection of craft beer and add fowling to that and you have a fun evening.
While the fowling was super fun and a great idea to have at the Joe, the lack of a diverse group of breweries was pretty disappointing. My favorite part of beer tastings is trying new breweries, but when all you have are the biggest breweries in the area, I'm not getting what I want. Who hasn't tried Bells, Founders, and the other breweries that were at the BrewHaha this year? If fowling took up too much room to have a wider variety, I'd rather have had more breweries and less fowling. The food was very good, but very heavy (what I tried at least; after two "samples" I was too full to try the other two...). I probably should have saved the mac and cheese for last. The band was fantastic and had a great set list. If you were just looking for a fun event, I'd recommend it, but if you're looking to expand your beer horizons, I'd say save your money.
exceeded our expectations food was amazing, learned a new game that we did not even know existed
This was our third BrewHaHa. While everyone seemed to enjoy the addition of Fowling, the lines for that were too long all evening. Unlike prior events, there were zero beers on tap this time (bottles and cans only). The food was average, with not enough choices. The last one we went to during the summer was held in the parking lot, and that one was MUCH better. in addition, a 6:00 start on a Friday was less convenient that the typical late Saturday afternoon on which these event had been previously held.
Great time at Joe Louis arena, the food was excellent. The beer was a wide variety and all very good. Both bands were wonderful. It was a great event and we are planning to go again with more people. Only down fall was that they didn't play the wings game.
First time to this event and it was a lot of fun. The music was great, the food was good and the beer tasting was grand. Definitely would do this again. It would be a lot of fun if you bring a group of people with you.
Overall a very enjoyable evening. MANY choices of beer to taste, and the food was GREAT! We didn't understand that the paired beer came with the food selection - we thought we had to use one of our tasting tickets. A little clearer communication would have made the evening go a bit smoother. While it was nice having music, the bands were so loud we couldn't visit with our friends. We bought these tickets as a wedding gift for friends who are beer lovers and hockey fans (a great pairing).
I thought this was a great event but with a few glitches. I don't think it was as well attended as it could have been, it was hard to find the advertising of the event. It was not well lit. The bands were great and engaging the food was phenominal. I would have planned it a little differently.
Another classy event by the RW organization! Went to the outdoor one last year, and now the dinner pairing. Loved them both. Enjoyed the food pairings and that some of it was adventerous! The bands were great, beer offerings & food! Totally five stars !!!
Excellent food, excellent beer selections. Would go again if they have it next year.
