MICHIGAN BREWERS GUILD TOKEN POLICY

BEER AND TOKENS

We are very proud to offer a diverse selection of Michigan-made beer. Tables are organized by brewery inside the beer tent. Look for brewery personnel if you need help selecting your next beer! You can exchange one token for a 3 oz. sample and two tokens for a 6 oz. pour. Additional tokens are available for purchase at the Guild’s Merchandise/Token tent. Thank you for your cooperation which keeps us in compliance with state law.

ZERO WASTE

We manage all of our events with a “zero waste to landfill” mentality. Please help to achieve our goal of reducing landfill waste to as close to zero as possible by properly sorting your waste at the disposal stations into compost, recycle or landfill. Look for signs or a volunteer for guidance when sorting. Thank you to Bay Area Recycling for Charities for supporting our festivals in our zero waste efforts.
