| Reeling ReviewsLaura CliffordSilly, very un-PC, often laugh-out-loud funny and refreshingly short on bathroom humor, Beerfest is Strange Brew's endearingly ungainly cousin. |
| FilmJerk.comBrian OrndorfThese guys look like a bunch of accountants making movies on their smoke break, and Beerfest isn't made to please anybody but their fraternity brothers still chained to their Peter Pan Syndrome. |
| Richmond Times-DispatchMike WardA hard 'R' comedy outfitted with plenty of female nudity and no unnecessary romantic subplots, Beer Fest has all the commitment of a night of drunken college debauchery and none of the "double secret probation" ramifications. |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Jeff ViceUnapologetically crude and politically incorrect, this is certainly not for everyone. But those with an appreciation for such things will be delighted. |
| The A.V. ClubScott TobiasRandom silliness rules the day, but the gags are frequently surprising. |
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekNothing to celebrate...a loud, boozy bust. |
| Associated PressDavid GermainBeerfest unfolds like a decent college kegger, the best moments coming late in the carousal, as more suds are quaffed, inhibitions loosen up and everything starts seeming funnier. |
| Entertainment WeeklyScott BrownBeerfest panders shamelessly to the 15-year-old in this 30-year-old... without assuming he is a 15-year-old. It's R-rated puerility for actual immature grown-ups. |
| Portland OregonianM. E. RussellIt's fun-dumb and definitely not everyone's cup of tea -- I don't want to oversell it -- but Broken Lizard keeps it interesting by refusing to color inside the lines, creating their own silly little universe. |
| Detroit Free PressTerry LawsonThe script, cowritten by all the members, is too sloshy and bleary-eyed to throw any darts that hit anything but the wall. |
