    Any plans to rent out more space at WT and spread breweries out just a bit more?

    Except for a few crazy lines (which won't be there this time), there was plenty of room to move around at the last EBF. So no plans at the moment.

    That said, we'll be looking a better booth placement to ensure that we're spreading things out evenly.

    Was Prison City invited? They were one of the standouts at Microbrew Fest

    We have a couple of Breweries from Ecuador who are interested in participating. We have special brews made with things like Coca leaf, Guayusa, Mora (a mix bet blackberry / raspberry), and various other interesting products. How do we obtain information on participating? Many of our beers have won numerous awards in various BJCP Copa Beer events in South America.

    Any idea when the beer list will be released. So many great breweries attending, I am dying to see what they are bringing.

    We generally start posting the list around a month before the fest, but we'll be starting a bit earlier this time. Look for updates next month.

    There won't be lines because the breweries generating lines won't be there or another reason?

    The line outside the Tree House booth last year did an excellent job of emulating the Tree House experience for those who had never had a chance to visit the brewery.

    A couple of the massive line generating brewers won't be there this time. But there's always some form of line here or there.

    We're locked down now.
    If we can swing it again, we'll definitely look into bringing it back.
