I totally agree.  This was outstanding – the beer was great and the company exceptional.  Actually I met some good blokes in the porta potty lines so have no complaints.  I would have been there from 1-7 even without the beautiful weather.  This was so cool – thanks to all who made it possible.

 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 It seems the Minnesota craft brewing scene is alive and well in spite of puritanical beliefs and outdated liquor laws.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!!!
