Fathom and Ducks In A Row Entertainment present Beer Wars LIVE with Ben Stein, a one night event taking you inside the boardrooms and back rooms of the American beer industry. The event will feature the exclusive never-before-seen documentary Beer Wars, followed by a riveting live discussion led by Ben Stein with America's leading independent brewers and experts. Playing in over 430 movie theatres nationwide on Thursday, April 16th, beer industry insiders will take you behind-the-scenes of their quest for the American Dream.

Beer Wars will introduce you to the who's who in beer while following the journey of small, independent brewers who are challenging the corporate giants. Director Anat Baron provides an insider's perspective of the daily battles and all out wars that dominate one of America's favorite industries.
