Great American Beer Fest

[SB996]

Just wanted to drop a note to you all. Great American Beer Fest was in Denver this past weekend. I was there for the Sat tasting in a Lamont ancient from Mr. Newsome. It was great to see at least 20 other men properly kilted, tartan and casual. The event normally allows only one ounce tastes. It must have been the kilt but my tastes were always larger. This really is a great chance to taste many beers not normally available. I would encourage anyone to make the trip.

Another one for the power of the kilt.

Twenty? This doesn't sound like a particularly Celtic or Scottish event, so I guess the idea of the kilt as a choice for menswear is taking hold in Denver!

Regards,
Rex.

Excellent choice in tartan, SB996.

I'm with Rex on this one, it sound's like the kilt is gaining ground in the Mile High city! I'm no Lamont, but that IS a great tartan

I am a Lamont and I do have an ancient and weathered kilts.
I have worn a kilt to the Portland beer fest a few times but don't rember seeing another kilt, also I never recived a larger taste because of the kilt.

I went to last July's Portland Beer Fest (on the Friday) and apparently there was one other kiltie in the crowd (but I didn't see him). As for pouring samples, I imagine the Portland Beer Festival is pretty strick on everyone getting exactly the same measure. You guys take your beer seriously in Oregon!


SB996,

Sounds like a lot of fun. So what were the best beers you sampled?

Cheers

HOW'D I MISS THAT? Last weekend would have been great to head up there, right after I got off work at 10 am. Instead I was forced to go home and open the single malt.

My samples tat the single malt tasting in Estes kept getting larger as I talked with the pourer.

Wow. I didn't realize Kilts were that popular around here, either. If I had, I may have shown up too. Even though I don't drink... beer.

Beer goes down easier when you're wearing a kilt... comes back out easier too!

I think everyone will agree that ALMOST everything is easier in a kilt...
