Nothing is easy to do in this state let alone putting on a beer festival in downtown
MPLS. 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alive and well in spite of puritanical beliefs and outdated liquor laws.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!!!
