I think I'll try to do the same.  Arrive late afternoon on Friday, leave Monday 
morning.  How long I spend at the beer event will largely depend on whether I 
have to give a talk on Saturday morning...

It would be a good idea.  I think I have to go to whichever hotel the 
organisers put me in, so hopefully I can find out what that is, and maybe try 
to find one nearby for everyone else.  If we can get a list of people who are 
definitely going, then we can try contacting some hotels and see if they want 
to offer a discount.
