    The brewpubs really embrace this event and seem to bring the best of the best to Winterfest! Bemidji Sour Red is a "sleeper" a must try!

    Fun Facts (Which are only as accurate as I am...)

    196 beers listed. 12 in Bottles, 1 in Can, 20 in Casks, 162 Draft, 1 Firkin.

    Average ABV: 7.29% Min ABV: 3.8 Surly Mild, Max ABV: 18 Barley John's Rosie's Old Ale.

    Average IBU: 43 Min IBU: 0 Harriet Juhla Bru Max IBU: Surly Abrasive Tea Bagged with Citra Hops.

    (Numbers are slightly skewed due to some beers not listing ABV and/or IBU)

    Yes, it was a slow day at work today...

    I'm more of a median/mode guy, so this does nothing for me.

    :slight_smile: The Median ABV was 7, so I just stuck to averages. I should post my spreadsheet, but then I'd be providing evidence to just how bored/nerdy I was that day.

    That sour red was easily my favorite of last year MAN that was a killer beer. Only beer I had more than once...heh more than twice even.

    Man I must be in the minority I think this offering looks decent at best, but again even last year there was a TON I wanted to try and there were more at the show that weren't on the list so there's that. I guess also all the beers I had to try I have the past 2 Winterfests, I'm sure the person I sold my ticket to will enjoy it. gotta save my pennies.

    From the most recently posted program, it doesn't look like Bemidji Sour Red is being offered this year. Still looks to be a good showing!
