2012 Mondial preliminary list has been posted

I think both of them will be at the Vermont Brewers Festival (tickets now on sale) with some nice offerings so that is always an option.

 

Yeah, I've been able to sample 10 to maybe 12 of the beers on this list, so if I had the chance to be there, disappointed would not be how I would be feeling, buzzed maybe, but not disappointed.

 

Any news on when the final list is coming out?

So, which beer(s) are you all looking most forward to tasting at the Mondial this year? I can't wait to get my hands on some Allagash Curieux and some Jolly Pumpkin beers!

 

I'm going to be in Montreal for work on the last day+ of Mondial (same day as the Grand Prix). How bad are things picked over by midday Sunday? Is it just a wasteland or is there plenty of good beer to be had? I'm debating between Mondial and a GA ticket to the race.

I know very little about Canadian beer. What Canadian breweries should I be looking for at Mondial that I wont be able to find on tap around Montreal later in the week?

 

DDC, Benelux, Hopfenstark and Cheval Blanc should keep you busy. You could taste some of those around town but you'll save some travel time if you get to the Mondial. BTW, there will still plenty of beer by Sunday.
