RE: ABR

Thank you so much for a great event! I am new to the area and it was a blast; I have let everyone know how great it was and we are looking forward to next year. Something I won't miss next year. Is the winter fest simular? If so I'll be there as well.

I don't know how Dave Berg and all the other people involved do it but they probably deserve purple hearts. Even the weather cooperated this year. As far as the long porta-potty lines, in previous years it was so hot that there little use for them! There will always be something that isn't quite perfect but friends can still get together and share some great beer no matter what!! It seems the Minnesota craft brewing scene is alive and well in spite of puritanical beliefs and outdated liquor laws. Hats off to Dave Berg, The MN Craft Brewers Guild, all the brewers that brought their beers and everyone else behind the scene that makes the ABR possible. Next year it will be bigger and better than ever!! Thanks again, to all who were involved!!! SEE YOU NEXT YEAR!!!
