Does admission to Beerfest include your drinks, or do you have to pay for them in addition? I have searched for an answer on the website, but it's not clear.

We have gotten babysitting to attend the F&WF on Friday. (!!!)

Admission to Beerfest does indeed include the beer. They are small samples(about 3 oz) because it is a tasting and there are about 100 beers to try.
One thing that has always puzzled me when I've gone is the fact that the Anheuser Busch tent always seems to have a long line. Don't these people understand you're supposed to try new, different beers? It's one of those mysteries of the universe I plan on asking God about one day.

Assuming it's not a problem, I'd like to invite my father along, too. He's not a real beer drinker, bit it sounds like a fun outing, and doing some things with him may help mitigate all the times we ask him to sit the girls so we can go out!

Keep in mind that a lot of the beers are domestic and therefore, not really worth trying at a beer tasting. It should only be about 1.5 gallons.
I'll think of a good place to meet before hand. There's no reason for you to have to pay $8 for parking when I can park for free. Maybe the Skull Kingdom parking lot or some restaurant in that area.

Let me know if you would like me to get tickets for you and your Dad tomorrow online. I just found out I can get another 10% off the online price.

If he's got an annual pass, he's got free parking. If you go to the annual pass page on Universal's website, he should be able to log in and buy Beerfest tickets with an additional discount. I haven't done it yet, but I think you just print them out on your computer.
Why does your Dad have an annual pass to Universal?

Zan, yeah, I think so. We get four consequtive days plus Rainbow was free for $99 each. That was reasonable enough I jumped at it.
Ic and Kwea, are we better off winging it and seeing what is available elsewhere? Suggestions? Maybe we all do lunch together, then split up for dinner -- Ic and Cor and us, and Kwea and fam seperate? I hate to even suggest it, but it sounds like we won't be able to all eat together anyway... Whatcha think?

You know how when you're worried about offending somebody you seem to offend them anyway?
With the attitude that I probably can't win, I will just jump in and say this:
I'm very sorry, but eating at 8:30, particularly by ourselves, will not work for us. I know it's not anybody's fault, and I know that it's a large party size on a busy day.
But Cor and I will not be joining you guys for dinner.
Sorry.
We will see you all during the day at the MK, and hopefully socialize then, and, hopefully we will be able to work it out to see the CP together. We'll just have to leave it at that.

a) I'm not sure if we're up for the MK tomorrow. It will be a game-time decision. Banana is not feeling well.
b) I called (before I knew this) WDW dining and asked if they had anything in the afternoon for a party of ten, and they had both 5pm and 6pm at Marakesh (in Morrocco). I've eaten there before. The food is good and there are plenty of non-spicy dishes. We also can (I believe) get a large table, or tables pulled together. I made a priority seating for 5. That doesn't committ us, because I can always cancel it; I just didn't want to lose the availability. So don't feel like I'm trying to push you around, and don't cancel what you have if you don't want to. Just let me know. If this works, great. If this doesn't work, then Cor and I will just have dinner without you all somewhere. (All of this, of course, assumes that we make it to Epcot tomorrow. Even if we don't make the MK. though, I am hoping we can still make it to Epcot.)

Actually, she seems pretty chipper this morning, so we're going to watch and see for a while. Maybe we could join you later or something.

Nope, nobody ever dies on Disney property. The standing order for EMS on property is to apply resusitation to whatever body parts they find until they are past the I-4 entrance.
