DOONE, TELL ME ABOUT ALL PINTS NORTH!!!!!!!!!!
stop yelling, I have a hangover
actually I feel pretty good now. So All Pints was pretty great. I had every intention of keeping track of everything in the little booklet they give out only to learn they don't do the booklet anymore, they have an app. Weird, I remember searching for an app before we left Canada and didn't see anything. I find some wifi to download app only to be told by google that I can't have the app, I live in the wrong country! GRRR! 
All the iphone people in our group have no problems but none of them like beer the way I do so they won't be keeping track of what they like. So I can't tell you the names of what I tried because I drank a ton, but I had some amazing beers. I think I only had to dump a couple. It started raining just as we were entering the festival grounds but it stopped and the weather was perfect after that. Because of the rain, I forgot to pull out my phone to look at the list you made me (or to take pictures) but I did get to these ones:
Bent Paddle
Castle Danger
Fair State - don't remember what I had but they won Best Beer and Best Brewery prizes
Indeed - I remember this one being really good
Modist
also we had Voyageur Brewery's session IPA on the bus
and a lot more that I can't remember
We went to Old Chicago restaurant when we first arrived and I had a pint of Two Hearted Ale, good thing too because when we got to their stall, they didn't bring any of their flagship to the fest. I enjoyed it.
I drank a lot of great IPAs, an amazing rhubarb and lemonade beer, one or two stouts. Our friends had a great time too.
And Ruddo, the pretzels were integral to the experience
This sounds awesome, doone. I’m so glad you had such a good time. It would be great to know everything you had, but the experience is far more important and fun! I’m already planning to do whatever I can to ensure I get to go next year. Hopefully I’ll see ya there!
