Your second question is ... "why in the hell would I want to go to a beer festival in Canada"? Fair question, let's discuss: The Toronto Festival of Beer held on July 24, 25 & 26 is the largest beer festival in Canada featuring many, many beers that neither you nor I have tried. There will be live music by several bands including Naughty by Nature. There will be Poutine (basically French Fries covered with gravy and cheese. Pure evil and the perfect drunk food). Lastly, my gut tells me that Toronto in late July will be slightly cooler than Dallas in late July.
Having been to several, many, tons of beer festivals around the U.S. we can tell you that the beers at every festival are virtually the same at every venue. You see the same brewers hawking the same products at every show. Not that we don't like American beers, oh no don't get us wrong, we adore American brews, but sometimes, don't you want to try something different? There are over 60 brewers, many, or even most that we have not heard of before, serving more that 300 different beers we are quite sure that there will be something new.
Flights now at time of publishing are running around $500/ person but are sure to change, though which direction I cannot say. C'mon, take a trip with us and enjoy the great beers and the nicest people in North America.
