This coming Saturday is the spring edition of the Great International Beer Festival in Providence at the RI Convention Center. I was planning on going, but ended up with stuff I had to do in the morning/early afternoon and a party at a friend’s place in Boston in the evening. I was going to try to make the early session, but was advised that there won’t be anything there I haven’t had before or can’t easily get. So I’ll be skipping it once again. If I didn’t have the 2 prior engagements, I would definitely be going regardless of what they have, but I’m not driving myself nuts rushing from work to the beer fest and then up to Boston.
If anyone who reads this goes, feel free to leave a report in the comments. I’ve heard that they’re slowly improving the fest to include more craft beer. I’ll try to make it in the fall.
If you do end up having any free time gimme a call, we could maybe grab a beer somewhere, no pressure, only if you end up being free.
Unfortunately, I know I won’t have any free time. Family Day at work until like 1 or 2, then lunch with Susan and her mom, then bring her mom to the train station to go home and from there we head up to Somerville for the party. I might even throw going to the gym in there.
