Hi from Newfoundland

Hi there. My name is Frank. My home is in Torbay Newfoundland, even further east than Tony L
I am a long time lurker, beer lover and beginner homebrewer. One gallon all grain batches. I have met and had beers with several Brewnosers. My brother was based at Shearwater so my wife and I used to travel to Nova Scotia about once a month. Loved going there. But he got transferred to Ontario. Not nearly so much fun
Finally getting around to joining Brewnosers. I am on the Beerthief, Bartowel and Beeradvocate forums. I look forward to talking about beer with you all.

Welcome frank! I met you a few times when I was over there working, in 2012.

Welcome to the Brewnosers as in joining and not just lurking.
We should get the guys together for a BBQ soon when this cold weather finally passes.

Howdy Frank! Welcome aboard!
Great to see you again in February, it had been too long! Give us a warning when you'll be back over, and we'll have a tasting night.
ps. Are you going to Mondiale this year? EZ and I are, really looking forward to it.

I'm undecided about Mondial. I booked vacation for those dates with the intention of going. The 2013 Mondial was my 8th
but it wasn't as good as previous years. No Vermont Brewers booth. Always a favorite. Saint Bock never had any Belgian beer last year.They used to have some fantastic Lambics. Mondial's rules changed. They charged for every different brewery represented making it too expensive to have a bunch of Belgian beers listed. There were fewer small brewers and more of a presence from the big guys. Still loads of great beer to try. And always a fun event. Plus Mondial 2014 will be a different weekend from the Grand Prix, so hotels should be much more reasonable.

Oh geez, now you tell me!
I'm sure we'll have a good time anyway, even if it isn't as good as before. Thankfully there'll be other opportunities for drinking and eating. If you do decide to go, be sure to let me know.
