Denver Beer Fest Meet-Up
It's been discussed in chat a few times so I'm gonna throw this out there...
Great American Beer Festival - Sept 16th-18th Tickets aren't on sale yet (most likely in June) and as far as I can remember they run around $55 a person. And trust me, it's worth it. Around 2,000 beers to taste. The entire city of Denver is one giant party for three days... all for the sake of BEER!!! Hotels fill up quick and tickets sell out quick. We should jump on this as soon as we can. Figure out which day to go. Where everyone is gonna stay. I have a limited amount of room at my apartment but some can stay here. Let me know people... It will be a blast.

I for sure want to go. And it is perfect timing as smrt's birthday is Sept. 18th. What an awesome birthday outing that would make!
I am going to say, put us down for a yes! We'll sleep in your bathtub if needed.

Hmmm.....
I talked to a client earlier in the week who's in Denver that has some new stuff for us. If he comes through on those things, then I'm going to need to do something nice for him. And this fits that bill. And if I could finagle a day for myself.... Hmmm....

I'm all about it...but it depends on money and work situations. If that all works out, get ready. I'm bringing my sleeping bag, and I expect popcorn.

I'd need to talk to Mrs TK, but I could easily make it my birthday present. Keep this thread bumped so that when deadlines start to approach for ticket buying and stuff I can remember to get on it.

Interested, but not definite. Depends on job/money/time/whether we've gone to Wales to spread my dad's ashes yet.

Yeah give us a heads up when things get closer. I guess can't guarantee I'll be available in September, but more then likely it shouldn't be a problem. I miss Denver and have been looking for a good excuse to go back.

If my plans for FL fall through, I'll come out.
If that's the case, my bday is the 4th, so we can have a HUGE TFP birthday bash in Denver. |

Tele, yeah... They haven't fixed the site yet. When they actually go on sale it will change.
Gucci, if you really want to. You can. Halx, of course. It'll have to be sleeping bag on floor style.

Is this at the convention center that is easy walking distance from the Denver Magnolia Hotel? I've stayed in one of their suites for a CEDIA trade show, and it was one of the nicest hotels I've been at...it looks like it isn't too expensive at the beer rates either, if the prices don't go up.

In case I don't see this thread in June, someone give me a holler when tickets go on sale.

Saturday works for me.
Should we just state right now that we will be going Saturday Sept 18th? I'm pretty that's the most popular day to go. It being a weekend and all. That's the main reason we always have gone on Thursday.

Not sure when we will get there or when we will leave. Depends on how much time smrt can get off from work. It is his birthday so we hope he will be able to get a few days, maybe we will drive out, or even ride the motorcycle!
Mmmm food...
