Garden State Beer Expo

Overall it was a great event. Never had to wait longer than 2 minutes to get a beer and there were many solid brews. I thought the best breweries were Kane, Carton, Brooklyn and Wolavers.  Wolavers only had their oatmeal stout there but it was really delicious. Kane had an Imperial IPA which is always amazing and their summer seasonal - Single Fin. Carton brought a great selection of beers - BDG (a country brown ale that I go nuts for), Boat Beer (a delicious light IPA), 077XX (a good double IPA) and a Milk Stout that was pretty good. Brooklyn didn't have any tap beers which was kind of disappointing, but their delicious summer ale made up for it. Their East India Pale Ale was also good, but on a hot day the summer ale really hit the spot.  The other breweries put out some good stuff but nothing else really stood out and blew me away like these 4.  Definitely a great event and i hope they do it again.
