The event, organized by COAST Brewing Company and Charleston Beer Exchange, debuted big in 2010 and has grown each year, with beer advocates from all across the country taking notice. In year three, it's easily one of the most anticipated beer festivals on the East Coast.

This year's keynote speaker will be Rob Tod, founder of Allagash Brewing Company in Portland, Maine. He'll address the crowd and discuss his brewery's Belgian-style ales. Other brewmasters will make presentations too.

The lineup of beers is truly dazzling, with rare ales and lagers, seasonals, barrel-aged specialties, and high-gravities. Upon entry, you'll receive a glass for sampling, which you can rinse out between tastings with water provided at the beer tables. They'll also have live music and food for sale from Diggity Doughnuts, D'Allesandro's Pizza, Roti Rolls, Ted's Butcherblock, and Coleman Public House.
