I was wondering if anyone has ever been to this. I am going there on Saturday. I love micro brews and there are a lot of breweries from all over.

Good to know. I am looking forward to it. Weather is supposed to cooperate as well.

It was a blast. The limited it to 4,000 people. It lasted four hours. I never have seen more completely trashed people in my life.
Quite a few people had pretzel necklaces. I laughed at first but was envious later. Great Lakes Brewing was the only Ohio brewery I saw. Obviously a lot of Wisconsin brewers.
If anyone has a chance to go to Milwaukee, i recommend taking a tour of Lakefront Brewery. The give you the tasting before and during the tour. It is a bit of a rowdy tour, but fun.

I went to the blues and brews festival at stan hewitt hall in Akron a couple weeks back. There were some really great breweries there, around sixty five in all. The best part was that ninety five percent of them were from ohio!
Champion of the day had to be the Goose Island Matilda that they had on draught.
