    Interested to hear which breweries/beers on the list people are most interested in trying this year?
    Also, which breweries not on this year's list would you like to see invited in 2015?

    My Top 3 that I will definitely hit in my VIP hour: Allagash Neddles, Perennial BA Sump, Thirsty Dog Cerasus Dog.
    My Top 5 to hit after that: Big Sky BA Biere de Noel, The Bruery Befuddlement, Cascade 2011 Tangerine Dream, FW Tequila Merkin, NoDa Pappy Van Winkle BBA Monstro.

    None of the beers sound bad at all so after I those big wants I will just kind of go with the flow and try things that sound interesting.

    Despite rumors to the contrary, a limited number of general admission tickets for the Denver Rare Beer Tasting VI on Oct. 3 are still available. We've had three people in the last couple of days contact us saying they had seen online that the event is sold out. They either mistakenly looked at just the VIP ticket listing or the ran across a press release from one of the last five years. http://www.etix.com/ticket/online/venueSearch.jsp?venue_id=10492

    This just in from Tröegs Brewery, they plan to pour Jovial, a Belgian-style Dubbel. This is in addition to the previously announced LaGrave they are bringing to the event.
     
  16. Lyke2Drink

    Lyke2Drink Crusader (485) Nov 2, 2009 North Carolina

    Just a heads up: 95% of tickets for this event are now sold, so it is highly unlikely any will be available at the door. General admission tickets are available at: http://www.etix.com/ticket/online/venueSearch.jsp?venue_id=10492

    Brewery donations for the Beer Lover's Silent Auction are coming in daily. They include two tickets to Sierra Nevada Beer Camp, a limited edition Stone 18th Anniversary Sign, and a private tour and tasting for 10 people at Olde Mecklenburg Brewery.

    I, for one, cannot wait until Friday! What is everyone up to after the Rare beer tasting is over? I was thinking Freshcraft / Falling Rock / another beer bar for dinner but also considered a more casual bottle share somewhere if there was any interest.

    I wouldn't make solid plans for after Rare Beer if I were you. Last year's Rare Beer was probably the worst off I was during the week :slight_smile: Doesn't mean I didn't go drinking afterwards, but I did have a hard time figuring out where my friends were...
