    The plan is to go, just not sure if it will be early during the day, or late night. This and MW day are my favorite events at Novare

    I'll be there sometime around/after dinner time.I will be there for the night.Gonna try and take in the old port as much as I can after I check into my hotel. I will be the guy w/ the Hartford Whalers hat on.....Say Hello! It would be cool to put a face to the name here on BA.

    On a side note:Any Maine Brewing Lunch around now?

    Cheers All.....

    I will definitely be there, sometime in the afternoon. Novare Res' website has the list of beers up!

    I will be there, potentially with my dog. I got way too drunk last year and he keeps me busy enough to stay at a moderate pace.

    If you don't mind Lunch that was bottled in late March, Westbrook Market and Redemption has some. Be careful though as they also have some that was bottled in January.

    Was there for a short time , around 5pm. Tried the barrel aged porter and also the barrel aged Belgian stout, both we're delicious. Was hoping to try Brett & I, but it was gone already!

    Got there at 9:30, and all 3 things I wanted to try were 86'ed, except the BA stout. Early bird gets the goodies. Got to check out the new Bier Cellar on Forest - nice!

    I had a blast......got their about 6:30-7.I had everything I wanted to try including the Bourbon Barrel aged Robust Porter....and Belgian Stout.Had the Homunculus on cask dry-hopped with amarillo.Also had the 2007 Imperial Stout which was my favorite of the event......god,I love that brew....lol.

    On a side note:Only beers that were gone when I got there were Brett and I and Satchmo.I had both before so that was no biggie for me.
    Also visited the Bier Cellar,RSVP,and Downeast Bev.,Thirsty Pig.
    Took home some Rising Tide beers.
    Special shout out to J.T. from Smuttynose who hooked me up with a 750ml. bottle of smutty's new limited Rye I.P.A.(very tasty!)

    In a perfect world,I'd be living in either Portsmouth,N.H. or Portland,ME. Everybody is always very friendly and both are beautiful places to visit.

    Cheers All.....:sunglasses:
