Beer Forum

Curious to know just how big the NHC is. Does anyone know who many people attended this years conference?

2005 had 852 I see in a press release on beertown.org.

I suspect this year was a fair bit less, mostly because they never announced a number the whole time we were there.

About 600 I hear. Good time. Floridians do homebrew better than elections.

Not much better. I enjoyed having it in my back yard, and realize that it will be a long, long time before it comes back here. Being across the country from 80% of the homebrewers in the nation (even if this is a huge convention town) was a bit of a drag on attendance.

I am already starting to butter up the wifey-poo to see about making the trek next year....
