Over the May 3-4 weekend I attended the Gaslight Gathering convention in San Diego. This is the 3rd year this convention has been held.
On Saturday I presented a beer appreciation panel. The presentation room was full and after a 5 minute talk about the history of beer, we started the sampling. The sampling list:
Hitachino Red Rice Ale
Chechvar
Weihenstephan Hefe-Weiss
Baltika Porter
Samuel Smith's Nut Brown Ale
Guinness
Chimay Blue
Leffe Brown
Petrus Aged Red
Delirium Tremens
Basically it was a world tour of beers.
On Sunday I gave a panel on mead. The room was standing room only with people standing in the doorway!
Mead list:
Sage honey
Orange honey with orange juice
Maple syrup mead
Raspberry honey with raspberries
The only commercial mead was Dansk Viking Blod Mead
