Read something about a beer tasting event at Epcot, are there special tickets for it?

I can't find it now, but I read somewhere about a "beer tasting" around the world during the F&W festival. Does anyone know if there is some sort of pass you purchase for this or do you just order a beer at each country?

Sam Adams does a great little beer tasting event in the courtyard to the right of the American Adventures pavilion. I've participated numerous times and I've always had a great time. Sam Adams brings a very knowledgable beermaster in from Boston to conduct the event, there are 4 to 5 three ounce beers to sample and the event lasts about 30-40 minutes. It takes place every day of the fest and several times each day. Best of all it is free. Enjoy!

I think I read about that too - I believe it was in the F&W sticky - no one has any real info yet - but assumptions are it could be like the wine walkabouts - where the brewery will have 8 or so beer choices - you purchase a ticket to taste 4 (all of this is hypothetical based on how they do the wine walkabouts) and someone will tell you the choices and you pick either a or b to taste - get a stamp and move on to the next choices....
