Who's goin this year? Tickets go on sale 6/22 at noon (MDT). I'm definitely going to the members only session, but I can be convinced to also go to the Thursday night session if anyone's going.

I usually go Thursday night, but also try to go to the KROC forum. They have speakers and beer. Not necessarily in that order.And I always go Saturday afternoon.

Just asked my wife. "Do you want to ask another stupid questions tonight"? Missed it last year but usually Thurs and the members early session Sat. I think we might drive this year and spend a little extra time.

I am going to NHC for the first time this year. I better not push my luck.

[ANUSTART]

bump...Noon today.

[DaBearSox]

I just volunteered...FREE SHIRT!

I'm debating if I should go to the members-only session or not. I'm being a cheap bastard. I am certainly going to the Friday night homebrew gathering.

Do it!If anything you can scalp your Alice in Chains tickets for some cash.

Just ordered 2 for Thurs and Sat afternoon.

[ANUSTART]

I got 1 for Thursday and 2 (me and teh mrs) for Sat afternoon. My brother will be coming in from FL and is going to those sessions too. He's been homebrewing for about a year, so I'm hoping we do the homebrewers get together on Friday again. It's always good to see how many high alcohol beers you can get a flat-lander to drink at altitude. I'll try to get him to bring some of his beers so we can all turn our noses up at his extract brews fermented at 90dF.

We went a few years back and had a blast. I can't decide between this or San Diego next year. I doubt I could pull both off with the wife. One yes, but not both.My brewing buddy has a good friend in LA and he says we can stay there from Saturday till Thursday then drive down for the conference. I've never been to Cali so I'm leaning towards that.

And miss the chance to meet Odacrem and Guest!? Definitely getting tickets for Saturday day. Not sure about Thursday evening. I suppose my arm could be twisted to go.

Hey, where were you in '07? I was there then. :covreyes:And Guest used to live in Chattanooga. I invited him over for a beer but he never accepted. My feelings are still hurt.

Got the trip booked. Spending Wed. night in Hays, KS. Dinner & Brews at LB Brewery. Crowne Plaza in Denver. Website says they're booked but there are some rooms set aside for "Brewers Association". PIA, had to call Denver and get them to make the reservation, but it's one of the least expensive options close to the Convention Center unless I missed some.......

Hey dude, I was working all the time there. I was mostly stuck in a shitty town in central Georgia on a job site, or driving 3 hours a day to get to and from my office in Atlanta! If I had the time and energy then, I would have taken the offer!If you come to GABF this year, I will make it up to you! Mmm... Cherry mead.

I know buddy, Im just messing with ya. I recall some of your posts where it seemed they had you bouncing all over the state of GA. The Cherry mead sounds tempting. Throw in a loaf of that bread you bake and we might be in bizness!

I was there but I don't remember 07 all that well. I'm amazed I remember 08.

I was there in 07, that was the year I moved to CO. I was in town less than a week. I got so trashed at the homebrew tasting. I think there's photographic evidence that I was there, though I don't think I remember a picture being taken.

I don't think I'm going to make it out this year. We're dealing with two houses (and two house payments!) and probably a move over the summer. I didn't even have time to get my act together for a Pro-Am entry. Hopefully we'll be back next year.Jim

[strangebrewer]

Just bought my tickets. 2 for the members saturday day session for the wife and I and I got 1 for Thursday night too for myself.

You're not going either?! We may not have a hotel room to trash this year.
