Just got back from the Great American Beer Fest in Denver. First time I ever have done an event like that and boy was it a lot of work pacing myself not to get overly drunk and be able to taste as much as I could for inspiration .

Surprisingly I was not too impressed with what New Glarus had to offer this year. New Holland (MI), Buckbean (NV), Slyfox (PA), McCoy's (MO), and Genesee Brewing (MA) impessed me the most with their line ups. So be on the look out for their products.

Strangers were very nice..had someone even go grab me another beer taste while I was waiting in a long cheese line. Also god that cheese they had there for samples was heavenly flavor. Don't let the French trick you that cheese goes best with wine. There is a beer for every flavor =3

All in all it was an amazing experience and I already know what I want to try making more of and where to tweak our own recipes. I'll be damned if Tek and I don't have a booth next year.
