Location is the NW corner of the Commons, Clifton is right behind former Jane's location. Might be closer to you than you think!
Aye, not far at all! But I'm without a car and this weather is making me feel lazy, so I was hoping to catch a ride if possible! :)

What time is it starting? I'll see if I'm feeling up for the walk.

I was hoping to come down with Jeff and Redoubt, but Jeff is down for the day, Redoubt is saving their energy for the Gala on Thursday and I don't think my buggered up hip from slipping on the ice (people keep telling be I fell because I'm getting old, which doesn't help in the slightest) will take a long car ride. Wish you guys would do this kind of thing on a Saturday/Sunday afternoon on occasion as with the long drive it's difficult for far away peeps who have to get up at the crack to go to work the next morning. Have fun tonight. Sorry to miss it.

:cheers2:

I wish I could make it tonight, but can't. It looks like it will be a fun one.

I'm eyeing those yeast test tubes! That small erlenmeyer flask looks good for stepping up yeast cultures too. Anyone I know going from Dartmouth in case they're left homeless? :)

There is even a guide to culturing yeast for the homebrewer, I used to do it. before I got lazy. Also pipettes.

And that piece of wood is, believe it or not, an actual small slat of the Beechwood in the famous "beechwood ageing" process used by you know who.

Good to see some that I don't see often and even better to meet some new faces that I only had known digitally.

I didn't manage to snap any pictures, but I believe there were 23 in attendance, and plenty of great beer shared. Also managed to clear out some grain and corny and mini kegs (Tim, I have a critical piece to the Beer King item you took), and lots of bottles.

Great to see y'all and especially to meet the new faces. Thanks for sharing your time and beer with us!

Thanks Jeff! It was good to see some new faces, especially those who came prepared to sacrifice their creations to the crowd.

Picked up the Tap tonight, looks great on Stanley. Thanks again for the tap Jeff. Thanks Chris for letting me know it was there, and really appreciate you muling it to Sackville Derek.
