I should be able to host, unless someone on the peninsula (or elsewhere) would like to.
I'll have a bunch of the group buy beer available.

Usually 7:30 or 8:00, but people come anytime after, maybe as late as 9:30 I guess. If you can't make that, on the 31st we are planning our ryeipa tasting. And the garrison gala is on the 22nd.

My midterms have been moved up due to the possibility of a strike. It's looking like that week will be quiet so I'll be going. I'll also be able to drive (from the South End). Gonna bring a shot glass so I can drive back too.
Brewing right now: whatever is going on tap at Stillwell in a few weeks.

Sounds great! My tasting glasses are fairly small champagne flutes, which make it easy for drivers to judge how much they are drinking.

Is it a branded shot glass? If so I didn't know they had any and I want one.

Is it possible that I might be able to catch a ride with you as well?

Yes. We'll figure out the details as the date approaches.

I want to host one soon, maybe April's. There seems to be a desire to have this one back in Halifax too (yes, I'm another Darkside guy!). Also by that time our Cascadian Dark Ale (I love the sound of that!) and my ESB should be on tap... my taps will be full unless I finish another keg by then. Ahh, who am I kidding? :spilly:

On tap at RubberToe's:

We've got several offers to host. Who will it be? It's unlikely transit will be rolling by then.

I'd still like to do it at my place, but if transport will be problematic enough to cause issues for some people, someone else can host.

I'm thinking any place will be problematic for "some" people....Having trouble getting to work because of the bus strike is one thing, but when it screws with drinking, then we have a problem! :drunk: :mebeer:
