    kinda depends on how much each brewery brings. Last year, some ran out in 40 min. Most were gone by the end

    Hyped to be able to attend GABF this year, and will be my first year attending. Have some stuff planeed out but still trying to get tickets to the Rare Beer Tasting on Friday. I'll be flying in early Wednesday and stay through Monday night. As far as events, this is what it looks like so far:

    Wed - WTF
    Thurs - GABF
    Fri - Nothing set in stone yet, still looking for tix
    Sat - GABF Member's Only
    Sun - No plans yet
    Mon - No plans yet

    I also want to set up some IP trades as I will be bringing some beer. If you're interested, hit me up!

    I have 2 VIP tickets that I'm looking to unload. I would love to make back the cost if possible, but PM me if you're interested. I'm still going so I can meet you there to make the trade.

    We have one late breaking change to our beer list for the event. Casey Family Preserve: Montmorency Cherry will be the beer poured by the brewery at the event.

    I'm getting super dick-pumped for this, but has anyone had any of the beers on this year's list???!?

    Still feeling great after GABF yesterday. I'll be pouring somewhere at Rare Beer today - hopefully a fruited sour saison from the mountains, but you never know. See ya'll in a few hours.

    This is my fifth Pints for Prostates event between Rare Beer and Funk Asheville. Every single one has been well run and a ton of fun. Great job to the Pints for Prostates peeps! Lyle, you da man!

    I was fortunate to get 2 free vip tickets to this event Fri night, and took a friend, @MrShake. We were blown away, so many awesome beers and we got to try everything we wanted!

    Just wanted to offer a public thanks to the brewers who supplied some truly great beers and the volunteers who made things run smoothly, but most of all to the beer fans who purchased tickets to the Denver Rare Beer Tasting VII. The Beer Lover's Silent Auction set a record this year and we appreciate the bids. During the course of the GABF weekend, working with the Prostate Conditions Education Council and 1400 Miles, we were also able to provide free men's health screenings to nearly 140 guys. We appreciate the support in helping us to reach men through the universal language of beer.

    @Lyke2Drink This may be a bit early, but is this event happening this year?

    If you have facebook, I recall seeing something already posted confirming the event.

    Yes, Oct. 7 is the date. The event is listed in the BA's Event section. We are close to announcing the brewery list. We will open a DRBT VIII thread for that so people don't see old info on this from last year and get confused. I would say that post will come sometime in the next week or so. We will have complete details on the June 19th ticket sale.

    Got my blood tested last year at Rare Beer. It was funny to see people react to the bandage on my arm while I'm drinking beer.
