The overall the event was a success, Oyster Bake was a great opportunity to hit our target demographic.  We were able to be place at 20 beer booths for Oyster Bake Patrons to grab as they please.  At times some of the volunteers working the beer booth encouraged the use of Twang Beer Salt. 

Although there were almost 80,000 attendees at Oyster Bake, there were other specialty beers companying Miller Lite like Blue Moon and Shiner Bock that did not pair with Twang Beer Salt.  That being said Twang boxes were beginning to empty fast the second day.
