Anyways so the first night of the festival in the middle they had some food vendors and some of it was pretty good too especially the shepards pie. We hit up the food first so that we weren't sampling beer on an empty belly.
One of the best beers there was from Erdinger and their Ur Weisse beer. If ya don't know me by now well you should know that I do enjoy German hefeweizens, one of my favorite styles of beer. This weisse beer was a bit different and had a strong spicy aroma to it. At first when the guy was pouring my sample I thought he said that it was Euro Weisse lol. As for the American craft beers that were there on the first day none really stood out for me. I did get a lot of questions asked to me about the shirt I was wearing that night, Saluki Dunkeldog from Big Muddy Brewery. People wanted to know if they were there and they weren't there but to come back the next day and see them.
Day 2 of the festival there was a lot more beers on hand to sample and some of the ones that I liked was the Mad Hatter IPA from New Holland Brewing Company, the Sierra Nevada Ruthless Rye, and the Vanilla Honey Weizen from Rhodell Brewery. I think I must of gone back and had about 6 samples of it cause it was that good. There was one Belgian Red that we tried that was so damn sour and tasted awful that we dumped it out. Left Hand Brewery had a pretty nice display there, they had a car and on the back of the car there was a couple of tap handles. Now that's the kind of car I need as long as the police don't pull me over lol.
Overall, there was plenty of beers to choose from at this festival since they had over 300 beers they were pouring on the second day. There was some good food and music as well and I would definitely go back again some time. Oh and one more thing that I forgot to mention was the chili beer that I had sampled. It was like drinking some jalepeno juice lol.
