Christmas meetup - Tuesday 11th December, Old Boro,Swords.

[Will_D]

Have reserved the snug for us.

Renier ( RatsatHome ) asked about how many bottles to bring.

We are only small so for tasting purpose one 500 ml  bottle would probably do.

However bring a couple of spares and swap them??

What do we think?

If you get off the bus at the Pavillions, walk round the side of it towards the traffic lights and the Boro is across the road from you. See attatched jpg.

The door to the "right of middle" brings you into the snug

I have three beers for tonight in various states of ready

A Pale Ale - which is fine
A Weiss Beer - which is a little yeasty - but might be ok
A Christmas beer - which I havent checked but should be ok

We'll see what santa brings !

Thanks Tube and Dempsey and Brian for making the trip - it was a great meet up - lovely venue - craicing beer - definitely the best brewers on the north side  -

I like the idea of a brewer exchange - basically everyone brings 4 bottles - we drink one and exchange the rest - so you end up with 3 bottles of random top notch bottles

Will's port probably stole the show - well done Will - Smashing port !

Cant wait for the next one !

After a long night in a dark-room full of great beers from you all I developped and printed up a few snaps ( Don't we just love digitral cameras ).

Will do the write up next and send it off to James who said (iirc) he'd update the front page
