We are going to join a big beer festival on Sunday Feb 19. Buy your tickets after you RSVP to make sure you have a ticket. Tickets are $50 in advance and $70 at the door (if there are any left) Here is the link: http://celebrator.com/anniversary/2012/ We can coordinate our travel to get there. Since we'll all be intoxicated, public transport is obviously best. ;-) So we can meet up along the way are take the train or BART together. Details from the website: The Celebrator Beer News will celebrate its 24th anniversary on February 19, 2012, with a Brewer’s Party from 4 to 8 p.m. at the Trumer Brauerei in Berkeley, California. Over 30 other breweries will pour favorite brews as well. Meet CBN writers and beer industry luminaries, including pioneer figures in the craft beer movement. Catering by Emergency BBQ and beer are included. The event takes place one day after the start of the Barleywine Festival at the Toronado!
