World Beer Cup, Chicago 2010
In April 2008 I did a really fantastic tour of California with myself, David Cryer, Neil Miller, and Steve Plowman. We visited a bunch of breweries, as well as attended the Craft Brewers Conference in San Diego, we tried some mind blowing beers and meet the brewers that brewed them.
This was the equivalent of going to the future of beer.
April 2010 - Chicago - Craft Brewers Conference
Now is the time to start planning, start saving, and planting the seed (not literally) with the wife or girlfriend (or mum) letting them know that you are possibly going to Chicago next year.
Anyone keen to join the road trip?
Possibly a stop in San Fran and or San Diego. I'm really wanting to get back and spend a bit more time at Russian River.

I reckon if we land in San Fran, we could spend a few days there before the CBC... ? Do Russian River, 21A, Lagunitas... maybe head down on the Train to San Diego and see Green Flash and Stone... ?

Fly into San Fran, good idea.
Then maybe fly from Chicago to San Diego and do Green Flash, Stone, Lost Abbey, Alesmith, etc, and then either fly out of SF or LAX
OK we need to create wish lists and prioritize which brewers we would all like to see, as we can't do everything.

Very true.
Your round trip as above looks great.
Must sees are Russian River and Green Flash IMHO
I dont know much about East Coast beers - so I'll leave that leg up to the experts.
