Colorado’s Daily Times Call has a piece on craft brewing. I would love a chance to go on the bus tour mentioned.
On the eve of the Great American Beer Festival in Denver, Horst Grieger and more than 100 other beer enthusiasts boarded buses for a daylong tour of area breweries.
They mention Samuel Adams Utopias and Dogfish Head Brewery’s 90 and 120 Minute IPA

Wine Magazine has a good article about US Brewers taking on the challenge of brewing Belgian wheat beers and winning. I have tried Allagash White and Brooklyn Local 1 and can recommend them. I need to keep an eye out for Captain Lawrence Brewing Company Xtra Gold American Tripel Ale, Dogfish Head Festina Pêche, Samuel Adams White Ale, Southampton Ales & Lagers Double White Ale and Unibroue’s Ephémére
