Just posted in the RB thread that I'd be there 5-ish, with my wife, Graham and another buddy.

Congrats! Had a great time as usual.
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Great job whislepig and amartin! I got to try both of your beer, and they were great. We definitely need to have a Blonde tasting, seeing as we took the top two spots. And the rest of us losers can try and convince you why ours were better. ;)

They also released next year's style last night. Daniel was bugging Titus to do it all night and he finally gave in around 9:30 so if you missed it next year's Brew Off Style is Hefeweizen

What are the chances that they'll change that to whatever the popular style is at the turn of the new year, though?
