Yes, my next beer diary will focus on the developing US scene.

I don't think I've had the IPA, but I know I've had the BeerTown Brown and possibly the Blue Heron. the greatest disappointment at last year's GBBF was that the US beers didn't arrive, I usually spend the entire week hanging out on that bar.

I have had the Blue Heron (not the brown ale) and it's good but I think the IPA is in a different class. I don't do beer festivals but I love to combine brewery hoping with some outdoor activity like going hiking or backcountry skiing. Draft beer is so good! -:)

I'm not such a fan of walking. Pubs with good beer aren't so close inthese paone of my favourite things is to cycle out and do 4 or 5 pubs and about 20 - 30 miles. Makes for a pleasant evening.

The opportunity for a good beer served at a sports world championship would I have thought been to much to pass up, even if the cycling is a bit excessive.
