[net.wines] Great American Beer Festival

rcd@opus.UUCP (05/21/84)

If you're a beer lover and you're going to be in Colorado June 1 or 2,
consider attending:
	The Great American Beer Festival (TM)
(The name is a trademark of the American Homebrewers Association.)

This festival will feature 75 beers from 44 American breweries.  Many of
these beers are otherwise available only in small areas of the U.S.  A
number of microbreweries are represented here.  (Sierra Nevada brewery took
first and second place in last year's voting by those attending the
festival.)

I believe that this is the largest festival of its kind in the U.S. in
terms of number of beers available.  The variety is amazing, and it
includes a number of bocks, porters, stouts, and other out-of-the-insipid-
mainstream styles.  Beers to be served are chosen by a group from the AHA.

The festival caps off the annual conference of the American Homebrewers
Association; it's their primary fund-raising event.

Details:  Currigan Exhibition Hall, Denver, CO.  1830-2230, June 1,2, 1984

I'll post the results of the voting on beers after the festival.
