The 3rd Annual Sun King CANvitational will host 50+ craft breweries from across the nation and overseas that CAN craft beer! From coast to coast (DC Brau to Firestone Walker) and every where in between (Austin Beer Works to Surly), patrons will have the opportunity to sample 100s of brews from award winning can craft breweries onSaturday, September 12th, 2015 located downtown Indy on Georgia Street and Pan Am Plaza with tunes from DJ Helicon and Action Jackson and a fantastic lineup of Local Food Trucks
Get your General Admission tickets for a special $40 rate now until August 28th! These tickets can be purchased online here or at both Sun King locations. (If you break it down, it’s like you are paying roughly $1 per brewery to sample beers from ALL over that you would have to pay lots of $$$ to travel to visit all of them!)
Designated Driver tickets are available for only $10 (DD’s will get complimentary iced coffee, soda, water) and there are still a few Early Entry tickets for $75 (get in an hour early and sample extra special brews from visiting breweries). GA tickets are $60 day of the event. 100% of the event proceeds benefit the Arts Council of Indianapolis.
Your ticket will also get you free entry to the FauxChella festival, located only 1 1/2 blocks away from the CANvitational! FauxChella will feature cover bands covering the likes of Prince, The Smiths, and more… Your CANvitational wristband is all that you need to get in to the event. Two events for ONE!
Sun King Begins Return to Wider Distribution Area:
Following our wins at the State House earlier this year, our expansion efforts have allowed us to produce more beer and beginning in September, Sun King will make our first step back into wider distribution! We have re-engaged Monarch Beverage to cover 18 counties in North-Central Indiana and they will once again be distributing our beer to Blackford, Carrol, Cass, Clinton, Deleware, Fountain, Henry, Howard, Jay, Madison, Miami, Montgomery, Randolph, Tipton, Warren, Wayne, and White counties. Sun King Brewery Representative Ben Torres will work with the Monarch team to represent our beers and champion sales across that area.
We will be talking with various distributors in other areas of the state and our goal is to be state-wide by Spring of 2015, but we will only add new distribution territories when we are comfortable that we can consistently supply them with Fresh•Local•Beer.
