I am happy to pass along the results local brewers achieved at the recent annual Denver Bacchanalia known as the Great American Beer Festival.
My definition of local includes the area inside a 100 mile diameter circle centered on the US Capitol. This includes all of DC plus parts of Delaware, Maryland, and Virginia.
My definition of Bacchanalia is 3 days, 5,507 beers from 1,309 breweries hailing from 50 states plus Washington, D.C. in 145 different beer styles--all at a mile high altitude.
