ABV Barrel Shop Demetrius Cain Fest - Festival I Food Truck I Gift Bag

Join us as we celebrate all things Demetrius Cain on the day he becomes the first inductee into the ABV Barrel Shop's new Bourbon Industry Hall of Fame!!!!

A new tradition is being started in 2025... a spring festival in which a member of the bourbon industry is inducted into the ABV Barrel Shop's Bourbon Industry Hall of Fame. The event will take place in our Speakeasy next door to the Shop. Our inductee for our inaugural festival is Demetrius Cain. Due to space limitations, we have four sessions where we offer 30 tickets in each session where you can enjoy a full festival experience with a multitude of educational exhibits, artifacts on display from Demetrius Cain never seen before and a full market where you can buy food items from Demetrius' farm, his products, unique barrel picks just for the festival, Nobleton's merchandise and older Nobleton's barrel picks from the ABV Barrel Shop. Attendees get a gift bag loaded with an official festival t-shirt*, a wee Glencairn featuring the festival logo and more.

*Please Note: The t-shirts are unisex t's with sizes ranging from Small - 4XL. Please email your size to: [email protected]. If you do not do that, we will make every attempt to contact you using the email you provide to get your size. If you don't respond to these requests, you will receive a size XL t-shirt.

Participants will also get to participate in the world's largest barrel pick (120 people voting), a chance to buy a barrel pick selected just for the festival, buy lunch as the Kanoa's Hawaiian Grill food truck and interact with the man himself as he signs bottles and chats with attendees.

The first session (10:00 AM - 11:30 AM) is a premium event and costs an extra $25 as the last 10-minutes of that session are dedicated to the ceremony in which Demetrius Cain is inducted into the ABV Barrel Shop's Hall of Fame. These attendees will see Demetrius get inducted, get the first look at the perpectual plaque in the ABV Barrel Shop's Speakeasy, Demetrius Hall of Fame induction trophy and receive a limited edition pin with the festival logo and have the most allocated bottles available to them for purchase.

The other three sessions (11:45 - 1:15, 1:30 - 3:00 & 3:15 - 4:45) will feature the final 10-mintues of the session dedicated to Steve Akley chatting with Demetrius Cain about his induction into the ABV Barrel Shop's Bourbon Industry Hall of Fame.
