7th Annual Firkin Fest Announced in Mobile, AL

Moe’s Original BBQ and Budweiser Busch Distributing will host the 7th Annual Firkin Festival on Saturday, April 4th at 701 Spring Hill Avenue. The craft beer festival, benefiting the American Cancer Society, features local and regional breweries showcasing distinctive cask ale in a firkin, a barrel made of stainless steel that holds 10.8 gallons of beer. Firkin’s hail from the tradition of cask brewing and use natural fermentation processes to carbonate the beer. The liquid is typically served slightly below room temperature and will have a smoother, lighter carbonated body due to the natural carbonation process. This year’s participating breweries include Black Warrior Brewing Company, Yellowhammer Brewing Company, Ghost Train Brewing Company, Back Forty Brewing Company, Braided River Brewing Company, Avondale Brewing Company, Fairhope Brewing Company, Interstellar Ginger Beer and Exploration Company, Grayton Beer Company, Second Line Brewing and Props Brewing Company. 

“Firkin’s have become a cool way for craft brewers to show personality and creativity by adding unique flavors or spins on traditional flagship beers by creating something completely new and different that they traditionally would not release to the market,” said Ian Berg, Craft Representative for Budweiser-Busch Distributing. “It’s also a fun way to introduce the beer loving public to “one-time” only beers that will truly be exclusive to the experience and will never be recreated.”

Doors for the festival will open at 2pm with a tapping ceremony at 2:30pm. Sampling ends at 5:30pm followed by an awards ceremony. Additionally, there will be live music. The all-inclusive Firkin Fest tickets are $22 in advance, $25 at door and includes entrance to the festival, samples of each firkin, crawfish, sample glass, koozie, literature and live music.

Served with red BBQ and Alabama white sauces, Moe’s Original BBQ’s award-winning smoked menu features pulled pork, ribs, wings, turkey and chicken as well as mahi mahi, catfish and shrimp. Down home Southern sides and tasty desserts complete the menu. The 7400 square foot venue is also a popular nightlife spot with full premium bars, high definition TVs and live music.
