Hmmm sounds tempting... although I'm a bit strapped for cash. Would love to try OB1s brew:

OB

Brewed by Oriental Brewery in Korea. American Lager style beer - 4.4ABV%. Timeless enduring heritage, craftsmanship and new rice addition delivers refreshing smoothness and clean after taste which makes it easy to drink more.

I went last year, ill be there again.

When you go in you get a smallish cup. Prob about 60ml or so.
you run from stand to stand geting tastes from all the exhibitors. Its like a kid in a candy store.

There was almost no line at any stand last year.

Sat 7-10 sounds like a plan!

I've got a credit card and I'd be happy to get tix for everyone and they can fix me up when we get there or whatever...

Just need to know final numbers of who's going is all.
