Why Upload Your Beers Early: Listing your beers in the festival beer app provides you with promotion before, during, and after the festival. Having the beer list early allows ticketholders to browse all the selections and note which beers they want to try. Influencers and beer blogs also refer to the beer list as they promote the fest, so having your beers listed increases the chances that you’ll be mentioned.
The earlier, the better! The sooner you share your fest beers with us, the sooner attendees will be able to see you.
How Much Beer to Bring: There will be between 2,500-3,000 people at ABR. We suggest bringing 3-5 half-barrels worth, depending on style, ABV, etc. If you are bringing many styles, we recommend 1/6 bbl kegs. Package is okay.
Note: These are the same requirements we had for APN.

Why is the Guild allowing THC sampling? We’re committed to promoting and supporting Minnesota’s craft breweries and brewpubs. By our count, nearly half of members are now producing, or planning to make, THC beverages in addition to your traditional offerings. We acknowledge the high demand and value these products offer breweries and hope you will attract new customers to your innovative products by allowing them.
APN is still a craft beer festival first and foremost, and we ask that all breweries provide their standard beer offerings and limit THC beverages to 1 to 2 offerings.
Requirements for Sampling: Ensuring that events like this remain professional, safe, and viable for the future is a significant responsibility we take very seriously. Therefore, any brewery wishing to sample THC beverages at the fest must comply with BOTH of the following requirements.
Information below is what we required this year. If you’re thinking of bringing THC to future fests, please review the requirements below.
If you are not sure if you submitted all the required information, click the button below to see the list of product that is approved to be poured at All Pints North.
We promote all participating breweries on the festival page, ticket page, and Facebook event, as well as through:
Help spread the word! Tell your followers that you’ll see them at ABR. Use the hashtag #AutumnBrewReview when posting – and remember to tag the Guild so we can share it to our followers as well! When members posts about the fest to your customers and followers, it helps promote your participation and your fellow brewery and brewpub members, increasing awareness about the variety and quality of craft beer statewide.
Helping promote ABR also helps the Guild significantly. ABR is the third largest source of operating income for our nonprofit annually. The more tickets we sell, the better services we can provide members throughout the year!

We will have dumpsters placed throughout the festival grounds, and you are welcome to bring your own small trash can to gather waste at your tent. If you are bringing temporary tattoos, packaged giveaway items, or anything else that will create waste, please be clear with attendees on how to dispose of the trash. If you are bringing packaged beer, please remember a container for your tent.
