I just noticed the Rockbottom is supporting an event on Monday June 4 in support of Autism Awareness. Why not consider sampling NASH's latest creations and supporting a good cause by going out on Monday night. Here are the details:

This Monday, June 4th, we want to invite you to our EAT IT ALL FOR AUTISM event at the Rockbottom Brewpub on Spring Garden Road.
From 7:00PM-9:30PM, we are selling $10 tickets where you can participate in a live auction, enjoy local musician Tyler Key, and support a FANTASTIC cause!

Busy Monday night? No problem!
Stop by Rockbottom through out the entire day as they will donate 15% of YOUR food bill to Autism Nova Scotia.

Just to top it all off, Scotia Bank will match all monies raised, so EAT BIG!!!!

We have everything ready, now all we need is your help to make this a success!

This MONDAY, JUNE 4th, be sure to join us in Eating it ALL for Autism and promoting autism awareness.

:cheers2:
Earl

At 2:00 it was empty. That was a quick turnaround.

Maybe the Noser's RIS shuld be done at RB. With all the extra space Greg has down there.

It ain't purdy - carbonated, impregnated with yeast, little to no mango flavour and bitter as balls :lol:

Nash,

I wanted to pop on and thank you in the RockBottom thread for your kindness and willingness to help out a new Brewnoser.

It was great meeting you and picking your brain the other night... thanks for answering all my questions.

The fact that my wife sat through an entire brew conversation and wasn't bored to tears speaks volumes of your charisma!

It was great meeting you.

As for the beer...

Good GOD that's some delicious brew you boys make at the Rock Bottom!

My favorite was the Balticus... it literally PUNCHES YOU IN THE FACE with flavor...

And smokey, holy shit it was like a campfire in a glass.

Cudos Nash, I can't wait to "hit rockbottom" again.

The Balticus is a favourite of mine too.

It's funny, my girlfriend, who loves it as well, wants it to be smokier!
