One month to go until the big European beer festival in Copenhagen, 12-14 September. Looks like I’ll be attending on the Friday and Saturday, getting an evening flight home on the 13th.
The list of exhibitors is long, and, while there will probably be desperate measures taken to get hold of more limited goodies, (Nøgne ø will be launching their Dark Horizon II as well as a version of their Christmas beer with added spruce shoots and lingonberries!), there should be ample possibilities for more leisurely sipping as well. You’ll probably have the opportunity to try out most of the 100 Danish breweries, but there are also plenty of imports from around the globe.
For once I’ve got a freebie connected to the blog, I got press accreditation.
So, who else is coming? When are you arriving? Where are you staying? Maybe some of us could meet up for lunch somewhere on Friday before the mayhem breaks loose?
I expect I’ll be getting in late for the mayhem: I’m due to land at 2.10. Most of the other Irish crowd are on the early Friday flight. You know where to find us.
I see you didn’t apply for the press accreditation?
Never occurred to me. What do you get other than (presumably) free admission?
Limo at the airport. Caviar. Mermaid service. What do I know?
But a separate press entrance is probably A Good Thing at an event like this.
You’re probably right. Bring me a Dark Horizon while I’m queuing, there’s a good chap.
If your wife is coming along, you’ll probably have to go easy on the mermaids?
sounds good.. wish i could go to such a thing. Damn living far away! Been a long time since i drank beer in copenhagen.
Responding normally isn’t my thing, but ive spent an hour on the weblog, so thanks for the great infos .
