Re: October Meeting
Not that I'm aware. I might be able to host, if people are interested in coming to Spryfield.

Re: October Meeting
I'm 50/50 on being able to host, but I'm definitely up for attending a meeting. I have a growler of the wet hop beer from Big Spruce which is patiently waiting for us.
Brewing right now: whatever is going on tap at Stillwell in a few weeks.

Re: October Meeting
Would there be such a thing as a lunch time weekend meeting one of these times, to make it easier for out-of-towners to make it down?

Re: October Meeting
Regular meetings are scheduled as second Tuesday of every month. Weekend events happen, but more as an irregular event.

With a bit of notice, I can usually meet up at RB or H&T for lunch/brunch on Saturdays - RB preferred as there's usually a firkin involved.

Re: October Meeting
Thanks. I’d like to meet up for a pint at the RB some time.LeafMan66_67 wrote:GuingesRock wrote:Would there be such a thing as a lunch time weekend meeting one of these times, to make it easier for out-of-towners to make it down?

Are things discussed and club decisions made at these meetings? or are they just informal get togethers?

Hopefully the carb is good. The keg on tap at The Townhouse was badly undercarbed.benwedge wrote:I have a growler of the wet hop beer from Big Spruce which is patiently waiting for us.
At Alexander Keith's we follow the recipes first developed by the great brewmaster to the absolute letter.

Re: October Meeting
In my experience it is a build it and they will come type of opportunity. When you or anyone is around for a beer or lunch, a post of where and when you will be there.GuingesRock wrote:Would there be such a thing as a lunch time weekend meeting one of these times, to make it easier for out-of-towners to make it down?
The meeting is a nice place to meet people and exchange parts, yeast etc.

Re: October Meeting
Ben, any change in your situation? If yes, I vote you host. If not, I'll host.

Re: October Meeting
Ugh. So, I've just been called into work, which I wasn't expecting, as I'm leaving tomorrow for a week's vacation. I've got too much other crap to do before then, so hosting (and even attending) is looking bleak. Anyone else able to step up? I'd hate to cancel and have the whole thing fall apart.
Otherwise, I can still host, but will need to kick everyone out promptly at 11.

Re: October Meeting
So. Can Ben host? I am only able to attended for a short while so his place is great for me. Also want to try that wet hop.
