Message kerenmk beers 7425 º places 316 º 04:52 Mon 9/4/2017 Planning an anniversary trip in the tiny area between Prague and Dusseldorf and found out about this event. Essen isn't really on our agenda, but we can include it in the schedule if it's good. Anyone been there? Worth going?
Message Koelschtrinker beers 28835 º places 22 º 07:40 Mon 9/4/2017 Probably be there on late friday evening. Returning from Hamburg so it depends a little on my mood. Worth? Not sure but some ticks for sure.
Message Erzengel P beers 14471 º places 109 º 14:55 Mon 9/4/2017 I'm there on Friday evening as well. Its bad that they start as late as 6pm... As it is new this year, I agree with Roman - no idea if it is worth it - but of course you'll get some new ticks. If you like to meet in Düsseldorf for a beer, let me know - I live nearby.

Message ekstedt beers 8338 º places 428 º 07:52 Tue 9/5/2017 Sorry if that poor joke caused confusion, maybe I should be pun-ished.
Message pivnizub beers 12929 º places 633 º 15:23 Tue 9/5/2017 Craft Beer Festivals in Germany are almost always a complete waste of time, presumably only made for " tickers" and "nerds" by incredibly creative and "hip" people. Better spend Your time in a solid brewery in Prague like Vinohradský pivovar, like Pivovar Kolčavka, like Klášterní pivovar Strahov or Pivovar Hostivar... Duesseldorf is also not bad for a decent sip!
