The four-hour regular session for the Celebrator Beer News’ 20th Anniversary Party began at four, after the hour-long V.I.P. session came to a close. As soon as everyone waiting in line was inside, a Dixieland band — led by a tuxedoed Tom Dalldorf complete with plunger — paraded into the hall, with the Celebrator writers bringing up the rear. For the next four hours, there was great food, music and, of course, beer.

A number of Celebrator Beer News writers, past and present, made it to the party from all over the world.

A Colorado-themed trio enjoy the festivities. Lauren Salazar (QA/Sensory Analyst with New Belgium Brewing in Fort Collins), Cheryl Black (co-owner of the Falling Rock in Denver with her husband Chris and his brother), and Jen Garris, San Francisco Beer Ranger for New Belgium.
