Re: Hoptoberfest 2012
The wife's 10 year reunion at STFX is Sept 29... is there anyone on the alumni committee that can get this changed?
This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

Is it your 10 year reunion too? Do you really want to go with her and cramp her style?bluenose wrote:The wife's 10 year reunion at STFX is Sept 29... is there anyone on the alumni committee that can get this changed?

Awesome! We need to do something special for him, our youngest member.
Any ideas? Real ginger ale or spent grain bread? I've got plenty of stickers for his bike or hockey gear.

"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Port of wines is that weekend too. I've got a lot of friends coming to town for the Saturday night tasting, so I'm likely out as well.

Re: Hoptoberfest 2012
Time to start thinking menu. I think after the success of the rye tasting burger event, some kind of burger should be the central theme, supported by a selection of sides and snacks.
