    Sorry I missed the last meeting. Were any plans made to meet up for the GABF?

    So as many of us look forward to this weekend that is GABF I thought I would pass along some information so that all of us can meet up once inside.

    It sounds as if many of us will be departing Arvada around 9-10am. You can easily plan a route on the G-Line here.

    We should plan on meeting up once we are all inside (if you want to be seen with this motley crew). My thought is to meet up at Homebrew Marketplace at the end of aisle 7 around 12:45-1:00. I know this can be tough as some might be just coming in the doors and others might be slipping in their ability to tell time at this moment. If anyone has other thoughts please speak up. A map of the event can be found here.

    Make sure to check off the breweries you want to visit prior to entering. This can help save time. You can look up the breweries locations here.

    Am I missing anything?

    I am planning on heading down to Olde Town and parking down there, then taking the train in, then train back to Olde Town – likely Ubering home. I anyone wants to ride the train with me I can pick you up (if you are close-ish to Olde Town / 65th and Kipling). I would like to be on the 9:12 or 9:27 am train; giving me an hour or more in line, hopefully. As any of us know that have attended in the past, the line wraps around the entirety of the convention center which isn’t small.

    If anyone has other secrets, hints, tips or other bullshit banter, now is the time to share.

    If you want to reach out to me before the festival / during / or when you are spinning on your living room floor you can reach me at: 720-480-2124.

    I’ll be at the fest. I’ll try to meet at that time or if I miss you I’ll text someone later on.

    Thanks for the info Even, as one of the noobs I had no idea the line would be that long. So…I will try to be on that same G line train coming from the Kipling station.

    Be sure to make your pretzel necklace the night before. Sam’s clubs pretzels work the best. I should be on the 9:27 train. 9:12 is a little too early.

    Be sure to test your app so the tickets come up on your phone before you get there.

    I would recommend downloading the GABF app and putting your breweries on there.

    Some of the top breweries have just a table so their are long lines – 3 Flyods and Russian River for example. Others will have big displays so they may be crowded but the lines move fast.
