Beer Festival 2009

Now here is a great new tradition that I hope will stick around.  This year's beer festival drew tons of people to sample beers from all over.  There were lines at every booth, but they move pretty quickly when you've got a drink in your hand.  You get to keep the tasting glass... but I'm not sure exactly what to do with a glass that's too big for a shot and too small for a regular beer.  Triple shot?

Stay tuned for next fall's beer festival...

On the theme of Halloween, they've got Psycho playing tonight and Ghostbusters playing next Friday.
