Battle of the Brews at Saratoga

10th Annual Battle of the Brews
Saratoga Race Course
Friday, August 24, 2007
Noon - 4:30 pm

There is a tasting fee of $15 in advance or $20 at the door. Buy a commemorative glass for $5 in advance, $7 day of. Not sure exactly how the whole thing works, but any combination of brewfest and Saratoga Race Course can't be too bad. Proceeds benefit the Saratoga chapter of the Amerian Red Cross. Here's a link to a "postcard" of the event.

Late notice on this one, and there's not too much information out there. We can tell you that eleven breweries participated last year. You can probably expect a good number of entries from the following regional breweries:

Olde Saratoga/Mendocino
Cooper's Cave
Davidson Brother's
Adirondack Pub & Brewery
Lake Placid
Great Adirondack
Keegan Ales
Saranac
Cooperstown Brewing
Brewery Ommegang
Brown's Brewing
Albany Pump Station

Worth a look, especially if you're planning on attending the Travers on Saturday.
