Another excellent Hoptoberfest!
Thanks again to Kyle for hosting and Lucas for taking care of the sausages (they were super good). Also, thanks to everyone who brought beers, snacks and sides.
Good times.

Chalmers is up too! 
Great to meet some great new folks, and see some old friends.
Thanks for hosting, Kyle, and Lucas for the sausage organization. Will be enjoying them for the next 3-7 days, I believe!

Thanks to everyone who came and the ice crew for their efforts Friday night. Big thanks to Gahan House for providing the ice and Maritime Wine and Beer Emporium for the coupons.
Thanks, Lucas, for organizing, picking up, and cooking the sausages, and thanks, other people, for bringing food. The beer was great too, with lots of hops.

Yes, we thought of you and the other regulars who weren't able to come this year. Plenty of new people came, although the turnout was a bit smaller this year than most and ended at a more sensible hour.CorneliusAlphonse wrote:Yeah sheesh won't someone think of those of us who can't be there!

Hey Brewnosers, thanks for the great party! Kyle, thank you for the hospitality. Lucas, thanks for arranging the sausages. Lots of fantastic beers were had, some great sours... that insanely tasty passion fruit ipa... that 2012 collaboration RIS... too many to recall here. It was really great finally meeting some of you.

Thanks all! Sucks I couldn't come by until things were winding down, but good to see everyone! Thanks for hosting Kyle and Lucas for sausage coordination (while I didn't try them that night, the ones I cooked up for lunch the next day were great)!

I'll take the camera 

"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.

The two larger red-lid containers were mine - they are Dollarama items so I don't need them back.

I brought the CostCo sized jar of peppers. I have been trying to get it out of my fridge for a while. You can toss them if you don't want them!
