Poll: How many BeerAdvocate Fests have you attended?

I did a bunch early on (2006-2008), then couldn't really find anyone to go for a while when my friends who lived in Boston moved to Texas and China. Came back in 2013, then missed 2015 with an illness and have been to every once since.

Probably my favorite beer of all time at the fest was Kuhnhenn's raspberry eisbock. Their booth was pretty quiet all night. The move back to the cyclorama has been a blessing because I happened upon a hotel with a basement lounge two years ago where my friends and I have been able to play shuffleboard and have shares without visits from hotel security like EVERY SEAPORT HOTEL.

 

Been to a number of beer Fests. One in Germany. This is my first with BA.

 

First one for both my son and me!! Woohoo!

 

Call me a rookie, a noob or whatever you like. I don’t care what you call me if you are willing to drink beer with me. This is my first and I’m looking forward to it!

 

I forget now how many it's been for me, I know the first year I went was when Hill Farmstead was there at the Cyclorama. I believe I only missed the year it was cancelled due to weather and Tired Hands was supposed to be there... 2012 was the first year, I had to do some digging. So with that being said I've been to 8 Extreme Beer Fest's.

 

This will be my first BA fest!

 

So so so many fests, Todd, so many.

 

This is my first one! Excited to try all these beers!

 

This was my first and had a blast. I enjoyed the variety of the pack. Tried some brews I normally wouldn’t buy. Will there be more virtual fests?

 

This was my second. The inaugural West Coast EBF was my first. And it set a very high bar. I found Cyberfest to be a really good time, loved the live chats with @Todd , San, and all of the brewers.
