It’s September!!

And just like that, it’s September. Our summer may have been fleeting but the good news is SIPtemberfest is right around the corner! We are busy putting the final touches on our 2023 event and we have news to share with you – see below. Be sure to stay tuned to our instagram and Facebook feeds as well!

Check out our POSTER! Cassidy Sargent of Dama Astuta Designs created some extremely cool original art for us this year. It’s always so exciting to see how each artist integrates our event with their aesthetic. We couldn’t be happier with this work! We absolutely love the colors and the vibe and the simplicity of this unique design. It’s screams ‘CHEERS!’ And that’s exactly what we wanted!

Important: Sadly, due to what feels like a contagious virus, we’ve lost several vendors this year to lack of staffing. You may see some vendors listed on the poster and the beer menu who dropped out after our art went to press. Click here for our updated brewer list. There will also be a QR code at the event that will direct you to the correct list of vendors & the menu.

NEW THIS YEAR! Photobooth Planet will be at SIP with their gorgeous vintage VW, ready for you and your posse to pile in and take some epic pics! For $5 they will print photostrips for everyone in the session. If two people are in the photo, they will print 2 photostrips, if there are 6 people, they will print 6! Cash/ Venmo.

Meet our NEW HEMPY SPONSOR – Sunset Lake Cannabis! From the shores of Lake Champlain in Northern VT, Sunset Lake Cannabis focuses on cultivating premium cannabis flower and crafting high-quality products while preserving their land and enriching their communities. while providing Vermonters with sustainably-harvested, sun-grown cannabis.

Beer Drinking Music! Ragged Company returns to SIP this year, playing from 1-3.

And NEW this year, Alex Rohan will play from 3-5! Some of you may remember Alex from back in the day when he was slinging beers for Treehouse Brewing at SIP. We think you’ll enjoy his current work, just as much!

Puppies! Finally, check out these adorable fluffers!! Our new non-profit partner, For the Love of Dogs will have puppies available for adoption at SIP!
