Join in for the Virtural Colorado Beer Tasting – Thur Night 9/9 (Anywhere and Everywhere)

Virtual Colorado Beer Tasting – September 9th, 2010

(#bbc2010, @oskarblues, @breckenridge, @greatdivide, @lefthand,)

The organizers of the first annual Beer Bloggers Conference (Nov 5-7 in Boulder Colorado) are hosting an online virtual tasting.

We (at 2Beerguys.com) are signed up to attend the Beer Bloggers conference in November, but if you are unable to attend the event, here is an opportunity to participate.

What: First-ever Virtual Colorado Beer Tasting to help promote both the Beer Bloggers Conference and Colorado beers.
When: Thursday, September 9th, at 7:30 PM Mountain Standard Time.
How to participate: Beer drinkers, beer bloggers, and beer journalists across the continent are invited to purchase your favorite Colorado beers, crack them open all at the same time, and then write, blog, Facebook, and Tweet about them.

You don’t have to be an expert to participate, either at beer tasting or at social media technology. On the beer side, all you need to do is taste, evaluate, and write your comments. Every opinion is a valid opinion when it comes to beer tasting. On the tech side, we make it simple for you. You can Tweet if you already do that (use hash tag #bbc10), post on our Facebook page, or even write a comment on the blogger conference website. Just go to the Colorado page of this site for full details and visit it on September 9th to help facilitate how you express your opinions.

We already have eight Colorado breweries participating, so please try to select those breweries’ beers if possible (Oskar Blues, Breckenridge Brewery, AC Golden, Great Divide, Odel, Left Hand, Asher Brewing Company, Upslope Brewing AND Boulder, New Belgium,).

So come join many online voices at the first-ever Virtual Colorado Beer Tasting. You can participate from your own living room!
