Portland's Holiday Ale Fest opened today. More on that Monday.
However, as the weekend approached people have been asking The Chick what her plans are and their reactions when told have prompted this post.
The reason is there seems to be a perception out there that brewfests are only for 'serious' beer drinkers. The chick finds this puzzling.
After all , the best way for new beer drinkers to expand their palates is by trying diffrent beers, right? And what better place to do that than an event the whole purpose of which is to offer samples of lots of diffrent beers?
Yes, 'serious' beer drinkers often attend these events. But guess what? Most of these people are passionate about what we see as a hobby and eager to offer advice if asked. Nobody is going to judge you or think poorly of you because you don't know enough.
Most of these events are also kid-friendly, often offering treats and entertainment especially for little ones. So really, why not go?
