Later sessions are limited to 240 people, to give guests time and space to sample beers from a variety of breweries. Advance tickets for afternoon sessions are 250 yuan per person and include free-flow drinks, canapes provided by TRB and a limited-edition 2016 BICBF glass; tickets at the door are 300 yuan as available.
