A look at beers to try at the Oregon Brewers Festival 2010

Looking over the list for the Oregon Brewers Festival here are a few of the beers I'm want to try (or retry).  I was told that this is too long a list, but too long a list is better than no list at all. This is in no particular order:

1. Boulevard Brewing Co. - Tank 7 Farmhouse Ale - This very tasty Saison, which is part of the Smokestack Series (the first and only beer of the series on draft so far), is brewed with citrusy Amarillo hops. I know I'll be having a least one.
2. Boundary Bay Brewery - German Tradition Double Dry Hopped Pale Ale - This beer was brewed especially  for the OBF so I'll be interested to see how it turned out. 
3. Golden Valley Brewery - Festival Kolsch - I like a good clean Kolsch which can be hard to pull off. I haven't had this from Golden Valley yet but everything I've had from them has been solid, so it's worth a try.
4. Goose Island Beer Co. - Sofie - Had it in the bottle before and I look forward to trying this on tap as I've said, I enjoy a good Saison. 
5. Flying Fish Brewing Co. - Exit 4 - A Tripple hopped with Simcoe, Columbus, Amarillo, and Palisade. All hops that I really dig. Looking forward to trying.
6. Ballast Point Brewing - Sculpin IPA (Buzz Beers) - We have no shortage of good IPAs here in Beervana but this IPA is a tasty change of pace. San Diego style IPAs are very tasty too!
7. Grand Teton Brewing Co - Tail Waggin Double White Ale - (Buzz Beers) - A Double White Ale from Grand Teton's Cellar Reserve line-up of beers that are usually bottle in 750ml bottles. Worth a try.
8. Sprecher Brewing Co - Mai Bock - I've enjoyed some beer from Sprecher Brewing. I can't remember if I this was one of them. Always up for a good Maibock! Need to try this one.
9. Summit Brewing Co - Summit Horizon Red Ale - I've always had solid beers from Summit Brewing. Some of which I have found to be outstanding. Six hop additions using Summit, Horizon, Amarillo hops. Sounds tasty.
10. Surly Brewing - Bitter Brewer - I always look forward to trying something new from Surly. And we need more session beers in our lives period!
11. Surly Brewing - Four Anniversary Beer (Buzz Beers) - I told you I liked Surly. This beer is best described as an Iced Double Espresso Imperial Stout. Flavors of coffee, chocolate, and smokey roast malt. 
12. Upright Brewing - Single Cask Anniversary Ale  (Buzz Beers) - I don't know much about this beer, but knowing Alex Ganum, it's going to be good! [Update: It's the Gin-Barrel Age Apricot Anniversary Ale! Sweet, I mean sour!]
13. Cascade Brewing - Summer Gose - Back on to session beers. Gose beers are traditionally with a coriander, a little salt, and typically a lactic finish. This beer has enough residual sugar to balance out the tartness. Great on a summer day!
14. Widmer Collaborator - Sunstone Pilsner - A German Pilsner with a Wallonian Farmhouse twist? Hopped with Tattanger Hops. I'm interested.
15. The Bruery - Oude Tart (Buzz Beers) - I like where they are going with brewing at The Bruery. This sound like a great sour beer. Pretty big at 7.5% abv. too.
16. Terminal Gravity Brewing - Single Hop Double IPA - Single hopped with Columbus hops. Yes please.
17. Lucky Labrador Brewing Co. - Barrel Aged Son of Old Yeller (Buzz Beers) - It can be easy to overlook a local brewpub like Lucky Lab sometimes, but this beer was one of my favorites at the Lucky Lab Barleywine Festival this year.
18. New Belgium Brewing Co. - Imperial Berliner Weisse (Buzz Beers) - Yes Imperial Berliner Weisse is an oxymoron like saying big little beer. I'm willing to see if this beer works out.
19. Oakshire Brewing - Barrel Aged Very Ill Tempered Gnome (Buzz Beers) - Oakshire is doing some really great things these days under the direction of Matt Van Wyk. This beer is no execption!
