Honest Pints, honest pours

by Jim L. Ellingson

Our friends in Chi-town have been engaged in some interesting discussions about beer pricing. Of course half the problem is the volume. Webster says a pints is 16 oz, (20 oz in Gr. Britan) but we've all purchased **pints** that measured considerably less (14 and even 12 oz. "pints" are probably as common at 16 oz pints. Leave it to Oregon to offer a solution. http://www.kgw.com/news-local/stories/kgw_050709_politics_oregon_honest_pint _act.3019f68.html I'd prefer fill lines such as are the rule in the EU. e.g. 30cl (10 oz) 33 cl(11), 500 ml, etc. 20 oz of barley wine may sound like a good idea at the time, but probably isn't...

Beer blockbusters

by Eric Biermann

The full Article, with any associated images and links can be viewed here<http://www.startribune.com/entertainment/dining/44536567.html> . *Nightlife: Beer blockbusters* TOM HORGEN, Star Tribune Beer fans are about to have a busy couple of months. This season -- when spring turns into summer -- typically sees a couple of big beer events. This year, there is literally a circuit of beer fests clamoring for attention. Many of the fests are similar in set-up: Pay a flat fee for a sampling glass and taste as many beers as you want from dozens of breweries. Advance tickets go fast for these festivals, so buy them while you can. Here's a rundown of what to expect. The first new beer fest on the block is the *Beer Dabbler*. It's a traveling festival that will hit several cities this summer. Its first stop is Burnsville on May 16. About 30 breweries -- representing both microbrews and imports -- will be on hand for the four-hour event. Festival-goers will get a 5 1/2-ounce glass to taste the beers. The man behind the fest is Matt Kenevan of the Onion, who said the Beer Dabbler will mostly touch down in cities not known for their beer geekdom (such as Woodbury, Brainerd, Winona, etc.). (1 p.m. May 16. 1178 Burnsville Center, Burnsville. $25. www.thebeerdabbler.com.) Also on May 16 is the 3rd Annual *Brewers Bazaar* in Stillwater. While most of these beer fests take place in a parking lot, this one has the distinction of overlooking the St. Croix River. Almost 20 regional breweries are confirmed for the fest, where drinkers get a heftier 10-ounce glass for the tastings. (Noon-5 p.m. May 16. 101 Water St. S., Stillwater. $25. www.stillwatersunriserotary.org.) The veteran of these beer fests -- the *City Pages Beer Festival* -- is getting new digs this year. The 17th-annual extravaganza moves from Calhoun Square to downtown Minneapolis, near 10th St. and Hennepin Av. S. This is the big one for a lot of summer beer drinkers, with more than 100 beers to choose from. White Iron Band will perform. (5-9 p.m. May 30. 10th St. and Hennepin Av. S., Mpls. $25. www.citypages.com/microsites/beerfest.) The first *St. Paul Summer Beer Festival* sounds like it's going to be the capital city's answer to Minneapolis' popular Autumn Brew Review. Organizer Juno Choi said the fest is expecting more than 2,000 people to fill the Midway Stadium parking lot. More than 40 breweries will be represented. Like the Autumn Brew Review, festival-goers will get a commemorative glass to sample the beers. (1-5 p.m. June 28. 1771 Energy Park Dr., St. Paul. $25. www.stpaulsummerbeerfest.com.) Lastly, and as was previously reported here, the *Indulge *craft beer and food festival is set for June 20 at the Radisson University Hotel. This event will put a greater emphasis on food pairings than the other fests. More than 25 breweries will pair their beer with food by Twin Cities chefs. (6-10 p.m. June 20. 615 Washington Av. SE., Mpls. $55. www.indulgecraftbeer.com.) thorgen(a)startribune.com 612-673-7909

Carbon Dioxide Filters

by Rick Oftel

Have you ever had a whiff of CO2 from your tank and wondered if it smelled a little odd? Ever wonder what the big boys do to with their gas? When Budweiser was Bud, their quality control group required filters on bar gas. Since Interbrew arrived, the requirement disappeared. No longer do bars replace these $35 filters every year. Did yours truly meet a guy at a beverage company with a large batch of filters willing to sell them for a reasonable price to make room in his warehouse? You bet. So here is the deal. I'm willing to purchase a bunch of these and sell them to club members and other keg folks but don't plan to fill up my garage (it's already full). In general terms, how many of you are interested in purchasing a life time supply? I'm still negotiating the price but believe I can sell them for about $7.50 each. Send me a message if you are interested.
