GABF 2017 - What beers or breweries should I try?

[jbell71464]

I don't think Living the Dream distributes that far away. They're a mile form my house so if you make it down, let me know. Great ISU alum running the joint.

Also, loving everything from Weld Werks. Juicy Bits and Alpha Bits are two of my GOAT beers

Thanks! We dont get that far north to Ft Collins, yet....
We are pouring 5 beers at GABF this year
Schuss Bomber : Dortmunder Style Export Lager
Deutsch Vader: A Black Lager
Helluva Caucasian Stout: Chocolate, Vanilla, Espresso and Peanut Butter in a cream stout
The Great Oatdoors: Oatmeal IPA with Idaho 7 and Azacca Hops
Stop by! We are at booth S11

I'm jealous of you! What a fun trip.

• I've never had Cigar City, so I'd go grab me some Jai Alai.
• We now get Firestone Walker in Iowa, but I'd also check them out.
• I've had old Daisy Cutter from Half-acre it it was pretty good. I'd like to try it fresh.
• Oskar Blues Barrel Aged Ten Fidy is a fantastic beer if you like barrel aged stouts.
• I've never had Pliny The Elder, so I'd have to get that.
• Three Floyds Zombie Dust.
• All the Toppling Goliath Stuff. Especially Morning Delight and King Sue.

Being from CO, your list may differ.

Tried:

Jai Alai - can see why it's so popular. Great example of an American IPA
Barrel Aged Ten Fidy - so good I went back for seconds and thirds and fourths
Zombie Dust - liked it but was a buzzed and my palate was shot

Will try to be in line for Toppling Goliath early

So, let's talk about Great Notion. We were first in line last night and first tried Double Stack. Probably my favorite beer of the night. Tasted just like pancakes and syrup. Went back and tried the Ripe IPA and loved it. Then went back for the Juice Box and loved that one too. They were tapped out when I went back one more time. They are doing great things at this place.

If I were to have beer for breakfast (which is always a great idea), I would have the Double Stack and the Juice Box and it would be just like pancakes and orange juice. Sort of.
