-- Wilhagan's in Tuscaloosa filled with hundreds of people and, seemingly, all the beer in the Southeast at

Suds of the South V

on Saturday.

Breweries from throughout the Southeast presented their finest beverages to Tuscaloosa's craft beer scene, even bringing brews all the way from Colorado.

"We have a great crowd. Everyone's happy, everyone's drinking beer, so we're good to go," said event organizer and wellthatscool.tv's Bob Baker during a 2-minute break outside Wilhagan's. "It's been a good day."

Baker praised the many brewers who made the trip, as well as local and regional including his own Druid City Brewing Company who brought a limited batch of Northporter Cask with Peppers and Chocolate.

"We have a pretty great selection of beers in there," Baker said. "A lot of people have been bringing some strange, some might say unique beers. Everyone's having a great time."

The event featured more than 15 breweries from Alabama and even more across the Southeast -- including Louisiana, Texas, North Carolina and others. Patrons fastened their wristbands and took a shot glass with Suds of the South and Druid City Brewing Company logos on them, walking from one brewery to the next to sample the offerings.

It also had a "Sympathizer" from outside the South, simply meaning a Northern brewery joining all Southern breweries for the festival. This year, Southern Tier and New Belgium owned the title.

Southern Tier is located in Lakewood, N.Y., and has been brewing since 2002. New Belgium is headquartered in Ft. Collins, Colo., and its flagship leader Fat Tire has powered them to be the third largest craft brewery in the U.S. A second brewery in Asheville, N.C., is scheduled to open in 2015.

Roughly 325 people attended this year's event. Breweries from throughout the Southeast presented their finest beverages to Tuscaloosa's craft beer scene at the fifth annual Suds of the South event at Wilhagan's in Tuscaloosa on Saturday, March 22, 2014. (Ben Flanagan/al.com)

"Suds of the South is a pretty interesting animal where it provides the opportunity for people to speak to the brewers on how they made the beer and what all goes into that," Baker said, moments before rushing back into Wilhagan's. "It provides a lot of face-to-face interaction with the patrons.

"Real craft beer lovers will get the opportunity to learn something while they're here and have some good beers."
