Best beer festival in Arizona right now is this one, so who is going? BN Army meetup at say at 3pm at Oak Creek Brewing's booth?

Is the same event that used to be hosted behind Papago?? If so, I haven't been in a few years. I'm down. I don't have any bottles to trade right now. Maybe we should meet before for a little priming, a la tailgate w/homebrew? I can stick a growler or two in a cooler.

Anybody else going to be around?

Right, I got where it is now - but I don't recall hearing about this "Strong Beer Festival" 3 yrs ago - right about the time I stopped hearing about a similar festival behind Papagos.

Anyway, do you want to Meet up for some sampling before we go in?

I'll be there. I sprung for the VIP early entry pass - might be pretty happy by 3PM! (I have a designated driver) :D

I am pondering that VIP ticket too, but I figured if I said 3pm then people who didn't get the VIP wouldn't be in a rush to join us. 4pm well by then taste buds and minds may be blasted. Last year they had the Collaberation not Litigation Ale tasting at 4pm and while I tried it I couldn't tell you anything about it because my taste buds were so fried by then.

I'm thinking about going to this, just need to check w/ the wife to see if we have anything else planned. :roll:

I want to go to this instead of the AZ Beer fest in March. They raise the prices on that thing every year, and now even designated drivers have to pay $30!!

The DD price at the strong beer fest is only $5.
