Great American Beer Festival

I am sure most of you all have heard about the Great American Beer Festival. It takes place every year in Denver, Colorado and features one of the most extensive craft beer assemblies in the world. Getting to see this first hand can be costly. First, you have to be one of the few to buy tickets before they sell out. Then you have to travel to Colorado and pay for lodging. By the end, you are looking at hundreds of dollars for one event. Oskar Blues this year has kindly decided to offer up FREE tickets...to those who win the sweepstakes. Not just that, but they will pay for your lodging, air fare, and food for you AND a friend. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity, and everyone should check it out. Someone has got to win, might as well be one of us, eh?

I Have Returned...With News!

Hello Ladies and Gents! Yet another long absence but this one will be punctuated with activity. I am back and with a vengeance. We will start by saying that you will see a TON of reviews posted over the next two weeks. Just because I was MIA from here, does not mean I wasn't doing what I love best: sampling and rating beer. So check back often and don't lose faith in yours truly. We will end this post with a completely unrelated tidbit where I recently have read articles that show that beer has generated over 253 billion dollars this past year and 1.75 million jobs. It is a great time to be a craft beer drinker! Cheers!
