		<description><![CDATA[I’ve just returned from my 15th annual trip to the Great American Beer Festival in Denver. That number still boggles my mind and I’ve seen the fest (from its days at Currigan Hall), the City of Denver, and the attendant brewing and drinking communities change greatly in that time.

		<description><![CDATA[The Brewers Association today released news that it had once again changed its definition of the term &#8216;craft brewer.&#8217; The change relates to the association&#8217;s use of the word small to refer to its qualifying members.
