I know Wichitabeer.com has firkins sometimes. Just never made it to one yet.
I've all ways wanted to do one of the beer and food pairings. Every year I try to get my wife to go with me to one of the dinners the day before beer fest, but she won't. She hates beer. Told her I'll drink them for her.
Yeah I've never been able to do one either. I've missed Midwest Beerfest altogether the past couple years due to fishing tournaments, hopefully I'll make it this year.
