GABF 2018

[McNazz]

I don't know why but the members session always feels like it has a lot more people in it than the general sessions. At least in the past 4-5 GABFs I've gone to.

Same, that's why I've switched to the Thursday session in recent years. Saturday's member crowd is generally more "educated" on what beers to chase too so the hypey lines are a lot longer compared to the other sessions.

Huh, glad I didn't join to get that session, I figured it would be calmer. We're doing Thursday as well.

Don't get me wrong, Saturday member session is tight. It's probably the 2nd best session, but Thursday is where it's at in my experience. Plus, the fact that it hasn't even sold out yet makes it even more roomy.

Ha doing the same, no idea who they are but my GF is a big fan. I figured I will support her event if she supported mine haha.

They’re pretty fun as others have said. I’m not a super fan, but I dig them. I’m mostly going for the Red Rocks aspect, and I live in the NY/CT area.

I’d agree with this. I’m doing those 2 and Friday. And rare beer on Friday.

 

[Dino1]

They made "a lot". Maybe head right up and get the leftovers

Didn’t know about this. What are the details?

If it’s wednesday, I have the whole day and night open.

Wednesday? If so, that could be fun!

 

[Dino1]

Also, I may have a Rare Beer Tasting VIP ticket for trade for a GA and price difference if anyone is interested.

Yeah it's Wednesday. Wiley Roots is a couple blocks away and is also releasing beers that day

I'm sure there are. Not sure what time I'm heading up and will have to be back at 3pm so not really the person to offer a ride. Saw some out of town people posting for rides up in a couple of local FB groups.

Yes.

Appreciate you even thinking about it. I'll try to figure it out. Thank you though.

Looks like he may be selling it out right at this point.

 

[SerenityNow]

Anyone need a ticket for Thurs GABF? Looking to sell one at or slightly below cost! PM me if so!

Is it still available? I have a friend who needs a ticket.

Just texted my buddy to confirm.

 

[Dino1]

Does anyone have a GABF Friday ticket they'd trade for a HF CD16 and an Equilibrium sour or two? Or feel like selling on the cheap? Trying to minimize costs here.

Still waiting to hear back. Sorry.

She got one from someone else, so don't sweat it!

 

[stupac2]

Anyone have a list of breweries they're eager to try? I'm pretty unplugged from the scene these days and don't know the cool new stuff to try.

Just spent $15 for a can of Trillium Congress Street at Finns Manor.

If anyone wants to see me, I’ll be back home in Golden drinking $2 Banquets

I went to the Coors brewery. Found out at the end they had free beer. I was dissapointed that Banquet was not on tap. Still got free beer and coupons to the sandwich shop down the street. Will visit again.

I’ve gone there a dozen times in the last ten months and it’s always on tap.

I don’t even go on the tour. I just tell the person I came for the free beer and they give you a different wrist band and point you to a different elevator.

That's amazing. I would go way too often. Next time I'm there I will go again. Now I want a couple banquets.
