Great Taste of the Midwest

Surprisingly, this was my first year at the Great Taste of the Midwest, and I would have missed out again if not for the miracle of Craigslist. After I posted about wanting a ticket, I got a phone call five minutes later. Five minutes. Five minutes for an event that's been sold out since May. I heart Craigslist.

Over 120 brewers, 500 types of beers - all enjoyed in 2oz spurts. I think Belgian blondes are my favorite.

In some spots, the ground was covered in hops:)
