Events Update

Ok ladies, beer festival season in the NW is starting to kick off, and I am going to do my best to keep you up to date on the game.

We start with the Feg. 24 the 2008 Firkin Tastival, sponserd by the Oregon Brewer's Guild. This is the first year of this event, and they are promising 9 cask beers and food. Now, the Chick is a huge fan of the complexity of flavor cask beers have, so this one should be interesting. Cost is $25 and this year's event is limited to 120 people, so if you want to go act fast.

March 7 & 8 will be the Lucky Labrador's Barleywine Fest at their Quimby St. Beer Hall, there will be at least a dozen big beers over at that one. This is normally a fun event.

Also March 8 for those of you inclined to get on a plane is Hawaii's only brewfest the Kona Brewer's Festival, sponsered by Kona Brewing. This one features a variety of beers from the West Coast as well as a good showing from the home state.

March 21 & 22 will be this year's Spring Wine and Beer Fest, Admission to that one is $5, or Free if you get there early (between 12 noon and 2pm)

That should keep us busy for a while, I think

I think I may have to give some of these a try- at least the one at the Lucky Lab. :)
