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

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.

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?

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

I can't make it this month

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.

Thanks. I’d like to meet up for a pint at the RB some time.

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.
At Alexander Keith's we follow the recipes first developed by the great brewmaster to the absolute letter. :wtf:

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.

The meeting is a nice place to meet people and exchange parts, yeast etc.

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

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.
