1.) First things first, tell us about BrewEngland – who you are and where can we find you?
We are Adam and Sarah, craft beer enthusiasts who have a soft spot for New England breweries, brewpubs and brews. We travel around New England touring breweries as well as restaurants and fine pubs that serve New England craft beers We attend special beer events/tastings, and share our “beerventues” with the world. You can hit up Brew England for information on upcoming beer events in the area. Adam is also a home brewer and has launched a new section of the site dedicated to that. We can be found at www.brewengland.com.

2.) What will Blogtoberfest attendees learn from BrewEngland?
Attendees can learn about the world of craft beer, with a specific concentration on New England area brewers and breweries, without any pretense.

3.) Do you encourage reader participation (Feedback, beer suggestions, brewery recommendations?) or is this a chronicle for the two of you?
We definitely encourage participation. We love comments and will always reply. We try to solicit names of bars/restaurants we haven’t been to, as well as specific beers that we should try out.

4.) Blogtoberfest has evolved over the years and isn’t just for blogs anymore — what social media networks can we follow BrewEngland on and do you do giveaways or promote specials to these followers?
Currently BrewEngland can be found on the web at www.brewengland.com, our Facebook Fan Page (Brew England), as well as Twitter – @brewengland. We have done a few giveaways in the past, and have some ideas that will encourage interaction of our readers/followers to participate in order to win cool prizes. We are also working with some local brewpubs and are in the planning stages of hosting special beer centric events in the upcoming months.

5.) Who are you looking forward to meeting at Blogtoberfest?
We’re looking to meet interesting new people, bloggers, or just those who have any interest in beer whatsoever. We believe that people who don’t drink craft beer are just looking for a reason to start – we have some suggestions that make it easy for anyone to transition to “better beer”.

6.) Do you have a good networking tip for first time Blogtoberfest attendees?
Talk to everyone! This is Sarah’s 4th time at Blogtoberfest and if there is one thing she has learned it’s dont sit in the corner all night, step out and introduce yourselves. Its a friendly crowd and the more you socialize the more you get out of it!

7.) Who from BrewEngland is attending and how will we recognize the BrewEngland team at Blogtoberfest?
Sarah and Adam will both be attending Blogtoberfest. We will have our business cards on hand, some fantastic beer-centric prizes and a few cool surprises as well. Can’t wait to meet you all!

I have some sad news (at least for those of you who expressed interested in the Chocobeer event) – the event, which I initially thought was going to happen on February 7th, has to be postponed!! Unfortunately the venue fell through at the last minute, but I am working with our Chocolate Expert, Dana Zemack, and sponsors, Merchant Du Vin and Cote Dor, to find a suitable venue in the very near future (right now our fingers are crossed for end of February/beginning of March).

I just wanted to keep you updated. I’ll post information on the site and relay it through email as details become finalized. Thanks for your patience!
