A few people have already brought this up in conversation, so let's get to the planning and organizing of this year's party.

I'm in. Wanted to come last year but something happened.

I've never been to a brewnosers meeting but I would certainly love to brew something up for this to share around. If that's the sort of setup.

I'm in. Do we have a location? Is Kyle willing to host us again?

I'm able to host. I've been out of town doing some beer tourism so haven't looked at this until now. I'll post some details in a day or two.

I haven't been to a Brewnosers meet in ages and I've been meaning to get back into it. I went to Hoptoberfest a couple years ago and it was great.

I'd like to come depending on when it is, but it's going to be a busy fall for me already.

The date is always the hardest part... Should we just do a poll?

We'd normally like to do this around the end of September, so only a month from now. Polling will add another week or two to the process, although it would give people some time to brew if it got pushed out into October. I'd like to see the details Kyle is going to post, his schedule may be restricted for we know.

That's exactly the setup: as many people who are able brew up a keg, or bring some bottles, or whatever fine homebrew they'd like to share. We also usually have some sausages made for us, get some fresh rolls, etc. If you're not able to bring beer, then a side dish is most welcome. And this is a great opportunity to invite spouses/partners who may not be quite as into beer as us, and show them the diversity in flavours, and people, in beer! Plus beer friends and those interested in learning more.

I've made another thread about this in order to add a date poll. Let's move the discussion there.
