Figured I'd start a thread for the next monthly meetup; anyone willing to host?

My wife had surgery on Friday and she's looking at a 6-8 week recovery. She's doing as well as can be expected but I likely won't be attending this month's meeting.

So, looks like nobody objects to hosting in Lower Sackville, so PM me for address.

Mike and Jeramy,
I'll try to get Parker home to watch the 2 kids and possibly drag Erin along to be DD that night for us. :cheers2:

The Feruz Cres Hooligans will try and attend, bringing a few goodies from our recent Maine trip.

I can bring some home-brews if I can score a lift out there.

I'm planning on attending for the first time. I've had it in mind that I'd make a real attempt at making it to the meeting in August. I'm driving from downtown Halifax. Still need a lift, Peter?

With any luck, the weather will hold and we can make this an outdoor tasting.

I had no luck. Parker's at his fathers and will be away tomorrow night.

Thanks anyway. I'll be showing up sometime after the little ones get settled. Not sure what I have for offerings, I haven't made anything new in a while. I'll pour off something or other.

Great turnout of 10 Brewnosers, including a new face at a meeting, a great selection of commercial brews, some matching cheeses, and an impressive home brew offering. A great night for SackVegas!

There were a couple of growler bags left behind - Mondial de la Biere and a blue one. I'll throw them in the car for the grain pickup.

Great to see y'all again, and for the first time. Bread and cheeses were excellent, great pairings.

And thanks for the crash course in grilling, Derek, looking forward to getting some more goodies to tend the fire. And maybe that'll get my lump-bag-rate up approaching yours. ;)
