The bad news: It's still in the doldrums of freakin' winter (Oxymoron Alert!). Maybe owner Ron Furman will get lucky and not have to burn up a snow-shoveling tractor again like he did this year.
More good news: More Belgian beer on draft than ever.
More bad news: That giant sucking sound on your wallet and the rebellion of the liver.
Here's a sneak preview provided by Max's cellarmaster Casey Hard last week:
We will be going all out again this year. we will have 102 Belgian Beers on draft starting Friday morning and plan on adding another 50 or so different Belgian beers throughout the weekend. We will also have over 175 Belgian beers in bottles and a full Belgian Inspired food menu.
So, here are a few of the drafts that we will have on for the Belgian Fest: 40% done.

Max's seems to outdo themselves every year.
Spoke to Casey yesterday, and he indicated that on day one, they will have only Belgian beers on tap (no domestic Belgian style beers), except for the Stillwater darkly (which I believe is/was made especially for this event). Apparently he's still having difficutly bringing in Fantome kegs, but otherwise he promised a nice selection of draft Cantillon beers, and even a couple of casks of Hanssens.
As always, the selection should be nothing short of mind boggling.
