Although the beer will be free-flowing, the real beauty of these events is :

1) Drinking the beer in the company of people whose eyes don't glaze over when you talk to them about what you do
2) Plying various SE reps and WebmasterWorld vets with said free beer, and prising little gems of info out of them
3) Getting to network with people whose secretary you would usually have trouble getting in contact with
