Free beer seminar at F&W festival

[Sassagoula]

Does anyone know how far in advance you need to arrive for the free Beers in America seminar at the Food and Wine Festival? I went to the Beers of the World one last year (I don't think they have that this year) and remember getting there about an hour before the scheduled time and then received a ticket a half hour before the seminar. Is it done the same way for Beers of America? I definitely want to see this and want to know how much time I'll need for it. Are there any other free seminars/tastings worth attending as well? Thanks!

The Sam Adams tasting usually has enough room for everyone so I'd say you don't have to arrive too early...we usually show up about 10 mins before (might be a little different on the weekends but always room weekdays).

That's great, thanks! Do you need a ticket at all or do they let you just walk in?

how long does it last?
and can you go more than once?

No ticket required for this one and you can go as many times as you want...Lenny who runs the event always recognizes us...I must have at least twenty of the complimentary keychains around the house now (we'll be there again for Oct 19-30). Probably runs around 15 minutes or so.
