Brewnoser's October Meeting

Post by **chalmers** » Sun Oct 07, 2012 3:48 pm

This coming Tuesday, the 9th, is the second Tuesday of the month. Time once again for a Brewnoser's meeting! Is anyone willing and able to host? We usually aim for 7:30 for an 8pm start, and people are encouraged to bring a favourite homebrew, or interesting commercial beer (something from away, special release from a local, etc). Beer-centric (or -friendly) snacks are welcome too (those pickles last month were great!).
Le'ts be honest, anything tasty is welcome!

I can't host (space is pretty limited in the apartment), but hope to make this meeting :spilly:

OK, due to overwhelming response, I will officially volunteer to host. Please PM or email me for my exact address, but I'll give you a hint, I'm in Spryfield, near the Canadian Tire.
Let's aim for 7:30 for a 8pm start. As for snacks, how does everyone feel about turkey sandwiches?
Know1, if you are able to make it, you could probably distribute a case or two of the glasses. And if you wanted, you could leave a few here to save having to make plans with everyone.

I'll throw out the option to host the meeting but I realize being in Sackville is much less convenient than Spryfield for most. I will certainly bring a couple cases of glasses and the order sheet.

I'm not against Sackville, but seeing as we're leaving it a bit last minute, let's keep October's in town. November a possibility for you? That way people can plan.

That's reasonable. November is tentatively ok, I'll know better as we get closer, and I'm talking within a week or two, not days or hours.

I am getting a lift over (from the peninsula) and can give a lift to a couple of others.
And hope to share a cab back.

Sadly I'm in Scotland. So instead of going to the meeting tonight, I'm going to Brew Dog (http://www.brewdog.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;). The decision between bringing back Scotch or Beer is weighing heavy on me, so it'll be a game-time choice. Have fun.

I'll be there! Jeramy, can you bring my two glasses? I'll pay cash at the meeting!

Can you add me and Sanitarium to the list of glasses to bring?

Will do guys. I'll bring an extra case or so too in case others show up.

Can I possibly take you up on the drive offer man? I will be picking up glasses tonight, so I'm thinking riding my bike might be bad for the glasses

I've got the start of a cold so I think I'll avoid infecting you all and sit this one out!

Post by **RubberToe** » Tue Oct 09, 2012 2:17 pm

I think I'll pop over for a bit. I'll pick up my 2 glasses as well. When I get home I'll send EMT or bring cash.

I'm in the same boat - even had a growler of that wild hop beer from Shiretown in Dalhousie, NB brought down to crack at the meeting.

I've already drained the first one (it's decent but nothing mind blowing) - if anyone wants to swing by my place in dartmouth on the way to Chris' I can hand it off if anyone wanted to try it.

PM or give a txt (or call after 5pm) to 488-0126

Sorry Ryan, the meeting was last night.

Thanks to everyone who dropped by, I believe we had an even dozen in attendance. Some great homebrew and interesting beers!

How was the Rogue Voodoo Doughhnut Bacon maple Ale?

hahaha holy fuck I'm out of it - you should call my boss and let him know that I've had one too many advil cold and sinus and am unfit to be at work :p
On the plus side, that means it's Wednesday, not Tuesday!!

Guess I've got another growler of this stuff to drain

Sick lineup, though - sad to have missed it

Great meeting...wasn't so great when the alarm went of at 6:30 this morning though!

Thanks for hosting Chris

I saw that in Vancouver and although I briefly considered bringing one home I concluded that I don't like you guys that much.

Did YOU at least try it, or was your spite for us too strong?

The first bottle I had a month ago was not great, but this one was excellent. Maple and smokey bacon on the nose, nice (but still a tiny bit thin for my taste) body.
