    So, who's going? Now that it's less than a month away and the beer list is starting to take shape, which beers are you most looking forward to? of course there's a few breweries that have yet to announce what beers they are bringing, like founders, coast, and westbrook, to name a few. Not to mention the rumored surprise breweries like Funky buddha and cigar city.

    I'm definitely looking forward to the Allagash sours, and the New belgium peach whiskey barrel aged prickly passion saison blended with felix. Also the Imperial doughnut break from Evil Twin, but really everything sounds awesome. Can't wait!

    I am going. The beer lists are definitely filling out, but remember last year many of the best beers were last minute surprises. I am sure that will be the case again.

    I'll be volunteering for the fourth year. I've wondered, at five years do I become a brewsuit (jesuit of beer)?

    The list is great so far, but some of the best is yet to come! Hope everyone has their tickets.

    I'll be there as well. Coming in Thursday and hoping Craftsman is open by then so I can check it out before the beer geeks descend on the city.

    I was reading an article while I was in CHS last weekend and it said Craftsman was looking more like March.

    I will be there with a full carload from Charlotte. Looking forward to a good time (and the times I won't remember at Closed For Business post festival). Probably shouldn't have gotten a hotel less than a block from there...

    http://www.charlestoncitypaper.com/.../the-craftsmen-almost-ready-to-wow-beer-geeks Says hopefully early Feb. No matter either way though, it's not like there aren't any other good places to eat and drink in that city. We've got about 15 people in our group coming from Charlotte so the Queen City will be well represented it seems.

    Yeah that article is newer than the one I read. Hope it does open in time.

    Side note, no body ever really talks about The Griffon (on Vendue) as a place to check out but their tap list was really really good. Shithole dive bar, but great beer selection (and had some good blue grass music last weekend). If your down that way or at CBX, worth a stop.

    i'll be there. first time since the original which was the best fest i've been too. sounds like this one is going back to that style and should be incredible. the beer list always looks awesome but it's the surprise and secret beers that really make the festival.

    And those of us in S.C. that have never had the opportunity to drink a Funkybuddha beer, all collectively frowned.

    And, just like that, a wave of sadness has engulfed me.
