World Beer Festival in Ralston - November


I received a tip about this festival and did some googling and sure enough there it is.  I have no other information other than what is available at this website.  It will be interesting to see what this looks like.  Nothing wrong with another beer festival in Nebraska and kind of flattering that they felt the need to host it here.  I believe this festival is tied to All About Beer Magazine.  Here is the limited details.

The City of Ralston anticipates the opening of a new Ralston/Omaha metro arena with 95,000 sq.ft. of opportunity.

It all comes down to the beer list they pull together. How many beer festivals will Omaha have in 2012?
Anyone have an over/under # for 2013?
Extreme Beerfest
Omaha Beer Fest
Hy-Vee Beer Extravaganza
Benson Beerfest
Hops for Harmony
Sunfest
Great Nebraska Beerfest
Home Grown Home Brew Fest
World Beer Fest
Holiday Beerfest
I'm probably missing some and haven't included non-tasting events like octoberfest, bockfest, LB BBQ party...
