I'm 90% sure I'll be in town. I can host if required (Spryfield), otherwise I can let one of the Peninsula folks take this one.

New to the group. What time do these events usually get started at?

Hey TJ
The monthly meetings usually take place around 7:30 or 8 but details usually get posted in the monthly meetings topic. As the date approaches you will see more activity in this topic. Location varies month to month, but it's basically whoever offers up their place as a meeting spot.
It's a good chance to try out some other members brews, as well as some that you don't normally see locally.

how much beer do people bring?
is it simply for sampling (e.g. 1 bottle from a batch)?

The idea ISN'T to get trashed (it Is a Tuesday after all), but it is to sample as many different new and interesting beers as possible.
This means a bottle or two (or growler) of homebrew, or interesting beers (from away, or maybe the private stores).
We get anywhere from 5-20 people showing up.
Unless someone else offers, I can host on Tuesday. I live in Spryfield, please msg or email me for the exact address and details.

PM sent.
All others unsure of the address, fire me a PM or email.
Homebrew kegerator is unlocked at 7:30 for 8pm start. Usually goes till 11ish, but I won't kick you out if we're still drinking good beer.

I've got to work in the morning, so I doubt I can make it, although I might try to swing by on my way out of town.

Could someone pick up some pony kegs from JohnnyMac for me? I can give you the money, but I am coming in from NB for the meeting and I have no way of getting them.

I could, but he is giving me a ride so I assume he will be there tomorrow.

And do you still want the old ale blend? I also have Scotch Ale if you are interested.

Is the old ale blend the one with the bret? I'll try that, cautiously. My ancestors would disown me if I turned down the scotch ale, so yes to that too. Unfortunately I can't remember what you wanted.
