If you enjoy Pilsners then Pilsner Urquell is (obviously) going to be a must have.
Does anyone know if any of these brewers offer a sour variety?

Is Reddaroo doing a craft beer exchange?
I just discovered Jai Alai from Cigar City Breweries in Florida. It's fucking incredible and I'd love to share it with some beer lovers. I'm not even a fan of the really hoppy IPAs, but something about this one tastes so rich and pure. I need to spread the love!

They are! Keeping an eye out for your Jai Alai - I miss it now that I don't live in FL!

So Crazy Mountain, Devils Backbone, Grayton Beer, Good People, Four Hands, Green Man, Hi-Wire, Hap & Harry’s, Nantahala, Mill Creek, and Starr Hill are all breweries I've never heard of/found around me. Who out of these has the best IPA for a hop head like me?

The only brewery that I have seen who announced what they are bringing is Bells and they will have Two Hearted (one of my personal favorite IPAs) and Oberon (amazingly solid wheat ale).
Usually we won't know what everyone is bringing unless they say something on social media.
Edit: a word

Silo- Farmhouse Ale Woodshed - Session IPA Transcendent -Tropical IPA
from Mill Creek

Really it's just me assuming that most of these breweries aren't gonna leave out an/their IPA from their lineups. Anymore the IPA is a good benchmark for the brewery IMO

If they are pouring 4hands white flannel or warhammer you will very much enjoy! Source: Fellow hop head and drink 4hands regularly.

So Crazy Mountain, Devils Backbone, Grayton Beer, Good People, Four Hands, Green Man, Hi-Wire, Hap & Harry’s, Nantahala, Mill Creek, and Starr Hill are all breweries
Starr Hill and Devil's Backbone are both out of Virginia. The former is actually owned by Coran Capshaw, manager of DMB, Phish, Chris Stapleton, etc. Great beers from both breweries. I'm particularly fond of Starr Hill's coffee stout. It's breakfast in a bottle.

Good People has some solid Ales. They're out of Florida I believe.
2
Birmingham, AL. Their double IPA is highly sought after, but I doubt they bring it.
1
Pretty much every beer 4 Hands makes is solid. If you like sours, the Passion Fruit Prussia is fantastic. Also have some solid IPA's like Contact High, Snake Oil, and Dakine. City Wide is my favorite of theirs. Definitely give it a try.
2
You have to try West Sixth if you are an IPA lover.
1
I actually live in Lexington so West Sixth is around all the time

Hopefully 4 hands brings that contact high
2
And the chocolate milk stout
2
The ones at my camp site, I can't afford all the beers in the Brooer's tent :( They look good though!
2
Lagunitas and Southern tier make some of my favorites! I know I heard of their being some sort of craft beer exchange, I'm pretty excited to bring some cool stuff from my favorite brewery's in NJ. Looking forward to seeing what everyone else from roo has to bring to the table!!
2
Would also love some input if anyone can recommend some broos to try! I tend not to stray too far from lagers and ales.. My beer of choice is Rickard's Red if anyone can recommend something similar. Thanks in advance!

if you want to go for a 'lighter' beer like lagers tend to be, try pilsners, they tend to have lower alcohol but still have a lot of flavor. Lagunitas Pilsner is one of my favorites. https://lagunitas.com/beers/pils Also Pilsner Urquell was the first pilsner ever made and is pretty tasty.
If you don't mind some sweetness, there are a lot of good ciders and even sour beers out there. Just gotta try out as many things as you can and see what you like!

All of them

I'm not familiar with a lot of the breweries coming, only the more famous ones but hoping to try some good beers! I'm sure they won't disappoint! Regardless I'll have some killer craft beer at my campsite along with some bud light for 4am, so can't wait!

Sweetwater 420 IPA is one of my favorites
1
So happy that Four Hands is going to be back! I killed countless Prussias last year.
1
Boulevard, West Sixth, and Southern Tier are 3 of my all time favorite breweries. Will be stoked to have some of their goodness on draft this year!
Have you tried Southern Tier's Thick Mint Imperial Stout? Personally not usually a fan of stouts but this is like drinking a Girl Scout cookie.
That is one I haven't tried yet but sounds amazing...
