Which night are you guys taking the White Labs/GABF/Brewing Network/More Beer winner out? I'd vote we meet after the session on one of the other nights at Falling Rock. Or the rest of us poor schlubs could meet that night and just talk bad about the rest of you!

Falling Rock = packed like sardines

Falling Rock is no doubt the primo spot in denver, but it's no secret and the masses definitely flock there during gabf week, big time.

If the BN army is set to converge on the falling rock taphouse, I'm in for sure, but... It might be worth considering an less popular/packed alternative. Within spitting distance from falling rock there's Wynkoops (tons of room upstairs w/2nd bar, pooltables, darts, shufleboard, etc), Breck Brewery, Flying Dog (aka blake street tavern)...

Your guys' call.

I hear you on space but beer selection trumps it all. Wynkoop's beer is a average at best and the other bars won't have a selection of much besides there own. I am sticking with Falling Rock. I need some Pliny, some Stone beers, etc.

It will suck trying to actually meet up but oh well. I did see in the Zymurgy that The BN will be broadcasting live from the GABF on Thursday and Friday as well as providing a walking tour of the event for download. That seems like a lot of work to get done there Justin, sure you are up for it? I also hope there is no RAT PAD chants at the event.

I can't wait, I have my hotel in Denver Thursday and Saturday and a hotel in Boulder Friday. I am not driving anywhere!!

Just bought my tickets for the Sat Afternoon session :D We're not going to be in town until late Friday night and leaving Sunday morning. We are staying with some friends house in Arvada. I'm up for Dinner Sat night after the session (4:30), if we can still walk!! We're having the wife's pick us up afterwards.

My calendar just opened up! What is the status on ticket availability? I think I saw that the hotel was booked up a month back or so... anyone have any insight on nearby hotels that might have openings?

I think you can still get some rooms that are listed on the site and I just bought tickets for Thursday's session today.
