I'm going to be concentrating on the Bières Sans Frontières[/url:1qkk1vd2] bar, 'cos that's where I think the most interesting stuff will be.

I was just at the dogfish Alehouse for lunch this sunday. I got the sampler there, which had the India Brown Ale (like a mix of an IPA and an English Brown Ale), the 60 and 90 minute IPA's, the Chickory Stout and their summer pale ale (the name is gone from my head now).
I have to say, the 90 minute on draft is great, but it was not as nice in bottles. The 60 minute in bottles was much nicer I thought.
If Dogfish have a tent there, try their Raison D'Etre (it's brewed using beet sugar, green rasins and belgian yeast) and their Festina Peche. All great drinks.
They also just put out bottles of their 120 minute IPA here too, which was great.
