This Saturday at the convention center. Did anyone go last year? I am thinking about making the drive down, seeing if it is worth it. Thanks for all the great help in advance!

www.columbusbeerfest.com

looks like they have a bunch of craft brewers there. Tickets are either $30 or $40 depending on if you get the VIP ticket or not. Ticket gets you a glass and around 20 some free samples from the different breweries.

If you go, make sure you hit up 3 Floyds. One of my favorite Chicago brews.

I'm headed to the Cincinnati version of this in February. It just a little bigger than the one in Columbus.

We went on Saturday with non-VIP tickets last year and it was packed. We are going on Friday and have VIP tickets this year. Should be a little more comfortable.

Definitely will. Had their Black Sun Stout a couple weeks ago, and really enjoyed it. Want to try some of their other offerings.

Possibly "foo-care". Or "foo-kay".

Never been but I do/will attend the International Beer Fest in Cleveland again this year. It's the biggest/one of the biggest in the Midwest. Hope this helps.
