GABF brewers' diaries
Brian Dunn
Great Divide Brewing - Sept. 24
In a lot of ways, today was a pretty routine work day. A couple visits to
our distributor, visits to a couple of accounts, calls to suppliers on some
new packaging etc. That'll all change tonight when the festivities get
kicked off at the Brewers Dinner. It's been at the Wynkoop for the past few
years. There are probably 15 to 20 really nice draft beers from all over
the US that'll be poured (including our IPA). If a brewery has people in
town for GABF, they'll most likely be at the dinner. It's packed with lots
of familiar faces from over the years. There's all the usual catching up
with people you haven't seen since last year's GABF ... with a great beer in
hand. The craft beer business is really congenial and made up of a pretty
good bunch of people. But that's just part of why GABF is so much fun.
