About the festival

Due to the uncertainties following Covid-19, Films on Tap has had to make the unfortunate decision to cancel our 2020 festival. The plan is to resume our events for next year, 2021. Those who have submitted their films for 2020 will absolutely be considered for our next festival, which we all hope to see take place in 2021. Thank you for your understanding, and please be safe as we navigate these mysterious times.

Films on Tap is an event series which hoists community engagement into the spotlight by boasting the greatest pairing ever: craft beer and independent film. Like wine and cheese, each film's concept complements the character of the beer. Dark horror film? How about a stout. Buddy flick? That might sit well with a Belgian wheat. At our screenings, the combinations are limitless, and the talent on both sides is remarkable.

5 Films will be selected.

This is a noncompetitive event.
