If you ever get the opportunity, go to GABF. If you ever get the opportunity go to your local beer festival. They are a lot of fun and you get a lot of experimentation. Go with no expectations an open mind a designated driver or bicycle to get home and if at all possible, avoid the yahoos. Unless you are the yahoo and if that is the case, have more for dinner, have an extra driver, and make all of your apologies before you leave the house...
