We made a trip to Colorado for the Great American Beer Festival.

Andie and Mike wait in line to get in.

There were bagpipes while we waited.

And once we got in...

...there were about a bazillion people there.

We tasted lost of beer. First you sniff...

...then you taste.

Andie didn't like that one.

Next...

Mike didn't like that one.

Not so good

Really not so good

Mike and Andie get an autographed copy of a home brewing book.

Andie and Laura pose

Andie was very excited to have gotten "a free one of these."

Andie poses with the Queen of Hearts, Tweedle Dee, and Tweedle Dum.

Time for more sampling

Not bad

Laura was our designated driver. She doesn't drink beer.

It was beautiful.
