It is being sponsored by FONZ which is a organization that is raising money for the National Zoo. If you are unaware the Zoo has fallen under some, err, tough times and has been under public scrutiny.

Seems like a good way to draw attention and raise money.

I am most impressed that they have breweries like Chimay and Young from Europe. (But am looking forward to Victory the most)

Sam75, you may want to keep the brew time and add the grain bill when you and Orrelse brew together. However, Orrelse posted at 9:15pm, so he may have been half way into a case of homebrew. Hence, addition and subtraction become a little fuzzy.

(whining) You guys get all the cool stuff on the East coast.

How about Boston? There is a beer festival being hosted by Beer Advocate in the end of October. I am trying to find a way to make it to that one.
