SAN ANGELO, Texas (Concho Valley Homepage) — Breweries across the Lone Star State will gather in San Angelo on Saturday, March 29, for Zero One Taproom's third annual Spring Craft Beer Fest. Here's what's happening at this year's celebration.
According to the festival's Facebook event entry, the fair will last from noon to 6 p.m. at Zero One Taproom, located at 59 N. Koenigheim St. There, over 12 Texan breweries will be offering more than 40 types of beer. Live music will be played during the event, and local vendors will also be present to sell a variety of goods.
Hannah Barfield, general manager of Zero One Tap Room and Zero One Brewing Company, stated that this year's festival features a broader selection of drinks, breweries and vendors to choose from.
'This one's just more variety, we have more vendors, more food trucks,' Barfield said. 'Each year we get bigger and better because we learn from our mistakes.'
While entry is free, Barfield said beer samples will be reserved for individuals aged 21 and up who have a 'beer band' or a VIP ticket. Those with a beer band will have access to unlimited samples, and those with a VIP ticket will have access to unlimited samples plus a goodie bag, shaded seating and a barbecue buffet.

The event's Facebook entry stated that beer bands can be bought on presale for $35 and for $45 at the door, while VIP tickets can be bought on presale for $55 and for $65 at the door. To purchase either item on presale, visit Zero One Taproom's Spring Craft Beer Fest website.
Barfield shared that Zero One Taproom's decision to start the Spring Craft Beer Fest came after its staff witnessed multiple beer festivals happening across Texas. They observed that very few of these fairs solely featured Texan breweries, which is something the taproom hopes to remedy with each festival.
'Beer festivals have been going on outside of San Angelo for a long time, and they're huge … but we just felt like we wanted to do one that just promoted Texas-brewed beers,' Barfield said.
A desire to promote drinking local and expand the taste palates of San Angelo residents was also responsible for bringing about the Spring Craft Beer Fest.
'This is trying to educate our community to show that, if you're a Michelob ULTRA or Bud Light drinker, there's local places that make beer the exact same style and taste very similar, but then you're supporting the local businesses and the local breweries in doing so,' Barfield said.
