What is included in ticket price:

  • A festival map/menu card

  • Special bottle of Starve: Exhibit E for take home only. The only way to receive this bottle is by attending Forever Summer.

Starve: Exhibit E (14% ABV) is a blended Barrel-aged Imperial Stout is made up of some very special, hand-selected barrels from our stock of oak-aged beers.

33% of the blend is Pallbearer Imperial Stout aged in bourbon barrels that previously held Utopias for 13 Months! These barrels are really special and we are thankful and stoked to make beer with them! If you haven’t had Utopias, it’s one of the original extreme barrel-aged beers produced by Boston Beer Co. clocking in at 28% ABV! Drinks almost like a Cognac or other thick spirit along those lines.

66% of the blend is ‘Empty’, our 100% Wheat Imperial Stout (a new favorite of ours) aged in Buffalo Trace Bourbon Barrels for 36 Months!

The barrels are extracted from oak and conditioned on a huge helping of the finest plump, freshly cut Madagascar Vanilla beans and Double Barrel Aged Maple Syrup.

What to expect at the event:

The map/menu card lists each beer and will be checked off by our volunteers when you receive that beer. We will have rinse stations/dump buckets throughout the festival to spruce up your glass for the next pour. There will be tents for shade and water stations for hydration.

Food and Drink:

No outside other alcohol may be consumed on premise. You are allowed to bring in your Starve: Exhibit E bottle into the festival, but must stay unopened.

Food will be provided by the incredible High Roller Lobster Co. (@highrollerlobsterco) all the way from  Portland, Maine. If you have never had food from High Roller, you’re in for a real treat. Food from High Roller not included in ticket price.

We welcome you to bring in your own food to consume while enjoying all the delicious beer.

Security:

Just heads up! RMC security will be checking IDs, wrist banding and checking bags at the entrance. Please have your ID ready upon entering the festival.
