What kind of schwag is there?

Each finisher receives a soft and wonderful Beer City shirt, a Beer City tasting glass, a custom bib, and the coveted Key Beer City medal. 

 

Will there be beer? What else will be at the finish?

There will be beer tastes of some of the brews that will be poured later in the day at the Festival. Each racer that is over 21 receives two tastes and perhaps more if you ask. There will also be post-race treats and drinks. The post race party closes at  noon to make way for Beer City Festival.

 

Is admission to Beer City Festival Saturday included? What happens at the Festival?

Beer tasting for runners last until 11am. After that you can purchase a Second Shift ticket, which gives you access to the rest of the day. The Second Shift ticket is 30% off the regular ticket for the Beer City Festival. Stick around for the fun! Beer City Festival is a full-blown afternoon of fun with bands, circus performers and multiple beverage brands. 

 

What's your refund policy?

Beer City allows you to defer your registration to any of our other events at any time. You can also transfer your race to a friend. No questions asked. Your race credit is good for up to a year. Here is a little tutorial on how to manage your registration. 

 

We don't offer cash refunds under any circumstance. Please consider purchasing race insurance. This is exactly what it's here for. It's available when you register.
