I'm in and will bring something for food.. maybe extreme potato salad again but with triple the bacon this time? Or if anyone has a good accompaniment for lamb burgers or anything else speak up and I'll get on it.

I'm not sure if I've already done it, or if I even have to, but put me down for 2 burgers. :bbq:

I'll hoping to get there - but wouldn't be able to make it until the evening so unfortunately I can't commit to any burgers - unless we're eating in the late evening.

I would say we would start cooking the burgers around 6:30-7:00. I plan to have extra, so you may be fine for food.

Sweet, if it's that time I'll commit in any case- worst case I'll eat them cold :). I'm going to drag the better half with, so say that's two.

I don't have any homebrew on tap, so I don't know what I should bring.. perhaps I'll try to get a cheeseplate together or sumin'.

If you're coming later, a dessert is a good choice. I'm looking at cooking 50 burgers, so it'll take time anyway - I'm sure you'll get something hot and wicked tasty.

Howdy Brewnosers,

Don't we just wish we could make it from the west to enjoy the great beer, food and company at Hoptoberfest. :mmm:

Instead, to make up for it, we are spending this week on Vancouver Island. With planned trips to Phillips and Driftwood brewing. Then, on the anointed day, we are headed to HopScotch (http://www.hopscotchfestival.com/kelowna) and will toast our fellow brewers in the appropriate fashion.

Cheers,

John & Anita :cheers3:

I believe X will send an email around with his address. It's near the Forum.
Brewing right now: whatever is going on tap at Stillwell in a few weeks.
