    Does anyone have any info on this event??? Site is pretty slim with list of brewers and other information. A buddy of mine just moved there so a couple of us from Boston area are traveling out there and just want to know what we're getting ourselves into. I know it's the second year it's happening, did anyone go last year??

    Thanks.

    It's a crappy, distributor driven Upstate NY beer fest. Set your expectations pretty low.

    Unfortunately fuj is right...I went last year and it was a bunch of volunteers pouring beers that they had no clue about. On the positive, it was a fun afternoon sampling beers and then hitting downtown 'toga. Relatively speaking, they do try pretty hard to make it 3-4 day long type craft beer "week" with different beer dinners, seminars, etc. A decent Saturday afternoon if nothing else is going on.
