    It's the return of BeerAdvocate Does Denver! Hell yeah!

    The last time we did one of these was during the 2010 Great American Beer Festival (GABF). A lot has changed in Denver since then, so this is going to be fun.

    http://www.beeradvocate.com/events/info/75463/

    Join @Jason and I (and special guest @Keene) as we explore places to grab a brew in Denver's River North / Five Points area. Join us all day or anytime along the way.

    Note for the locals: This will be replacing our monthly Denver/Colorado BA Gathering.

    Times and places to be announced, but that shouldn't stop you from saving the date and signing up.

    Updates to follow ...

    Oh man I'll be heading to GABF members session. I'm sure I'll tag along at some point but I probably won't be sober. :sunglasses:

    It's cool. They way it worked in the past was that Jason and I were going to all of these places anyway, but figured beer is always better with good people and conversation so we invited everyone to join us and come and go as they please.

    So join us before and after the session. :grimacing:

    Ditto on the first sentence and 100% agree on the second. If I make it, we can blather about complete drunken bullshit together.

    Ditto on member session for many of us so how about any BAs in at that session join forces in the hall and as Todd said, have actual human interactions, share hit lists, etc. then join B.A.D.D. schenanigans after. How? Either PM me or...about 15-20 of us get a rowdy crew for that Sat noon session every year, "The Wortlocks" wearing tall black witch hats (witch - worlock - wort...just in case you missed it). Just look for the group of hats and if you put one on yourself [dollar store or Target], well, welcome to Team Wortlock. You all know cell phones iffy and texting the same in the hall so this evolved as a way to find one another after the "two minute drill" kicks in. Cheers!

    Tell her you've got a surprise for her and bring her along. We can all shout "Happy wedding anniversary!"

    I'll be moving out to the Superior/Louisville/Broomfield area in 2 weeks and I'm hoping I can make it to this to drink some beers and meet my new fellow BA's of the Mountain region. I could possibly bring some tasty Chicago treats if that's allowed?

    @JakeT469 I wouldn't bring any beers, but do bring yourself and thirst for some local beers.

    What kind of electronic "bread crumbs" will you be dropping that day so we might know where to meet you at any given time? Would be a blast to put some faces to names!

    You won't be alone, there's a few of us in the same boat. Lots of different factors at play for me but I'd like to swing by for at least a beer or two if possible. Will probably end up coming down to the last minute to figure it out.

    I've got a flight to catch at 5:30pm, but if you're day drinking I should be able to join for a few beers.
