The Off-Centered Film Fest will kick off with an outdoor BLAZING SADDLES Quote-Along Beer Party Rolling Roadshow and a medley of craft brews.  The Beer Party is getting the Action Pack treatment this year with a quote-along screening complete with subtitles to all the most memorable lines and cap guns to shoot ‘em up with Black Bart and The Waco Kid.  Members of the Central Texas brewing community will be out in full force to showcase, and in some cases premiere, their most extreme, rare brews.  There are confirmed kegs from (512), Circle, Dogfish Head, Hops & Grain, Jester King, South Austin Beer and Thirsty Planet with even more to come.  Each brewery is bringing a special showcase beer that is normally hard to come by including a Cask of Jester King/Mikkeller Beer Geek Rodeo, Ranger Creek’s Strawberry Milk Stout and Thirsty Planet’s Jittery Monk Smoked Coffee Dubbel! Local non-profit The Texas Craft Brewers Guild will be operating a pie booth filled with the brewmasters behind many of the ales on hand and to top it all off, the event will also feature a mechanical bull! Bring a blanket and/or chair and enjoy a great movie, brew and food under the stars.  Gates open at 6:00 PM and the movie will start at sundown.

About Dogfish Head Craft Brewery

When Sam Calagione opened Dogfish Head in 1995 it was the smallest commercial brewery in America making 10 gallons of beer at a time. Today Dogfish Head is among the fastest growing breweries in the country. Dogfish Head has focused on brewing stronger, more exotic beers since the day it opened as the motto “Off-centered ales for off-centered people” attests to. Dogfish Head has grown into a 120 person company with a restaurant/brewery/distillery in Rehoboth Beach and a production brewery in Milton, Delaware, selling beer in 31 states and three countries. Sam authored “Brewing up a Business” and “Extreme Brewing,” co-authored “He Said Beer, She Said Wine,” and is the host of the Discovery Channel series, Brew Masters. He lives in Lewes, Delaware, with his wife Mariah and children, Sammy and Grier.
