Re: Great Canvention in Louisville

I have noticed a sharp decline in room to room trading at ConVention for the past few years, I think a lot has to do with hotel layouts, other events being scheduled, and the three day trade floor, However, probably the main reason is that we are getting too damn old to climb all the damn steps!

And the most exciting part is that they very well may be a few more yet to find like the Gretz Ale and Bock and the Old German Ale from Phillipsburg since there is some documentation existing for those cans. Maybe one day,,,
