I would love to go to this but won't be around on the date. A great opportunity for anyone looking to learn how to brew a good lager though.
God damn it.....working :(

The lager competition is the first competition I'll be entering. Great event to organise!

Hi All,
Unfortunately due to lack of interest, I have had to cancel this workshop as we would be taking up valuable space in the pub that could be used.
I have PM'd the 2 interested lads and offered an alternative to those guys.
Thank you to anyone who took the time to respond.
Kellie :)
That's a pity, it was a really good idea.
Yeah it is a shame. A great chance to get some tips from Bren especially if you are entering our lager competition in September. I brewed a Czech Pils recently and it turned out ok but with a hit of DMS (not good) it's definitely a very difficult style to brew well
It really did look good. Hopefully if there's enough interest you might be willing to do this some other time in future (although I get that it was being timed for the lager competition). Fair play to ye for trying to put it on anyway.

Sorry to hear that.
Was also interested fwiw. The 17th just didn't suit.
Yeah same boat, I'd have been interested if not for the belfast brewday on the same date. Pity it didn't work out.
Start an interest last for the next one. It won't be 100% but will help gauge numbers

Myself and MrGaryFitzpatrick called out to the guys in Lock 13 this morning following Kellies invite after the workshop cancellation. Brendan gave us an extensive overview of Lager brewing and the new Brewery in Sallins. The whole process took a few hours to go through and I can safely what we learned will improve our lager brewing immensely along with other beer styles. Thanks to Kellie and Brendan for taking time out of their weekend for us today. Looking forward to returning to Lock 13 and trying beers from the new brewery soon.
Your welcome, it was a pleasure and we was delighted that you both could make it down.
Brendan loves sharing his knowledge and passion, and as you found out time runs away!
Happy Brewing! Looking forward to sampling some in the near future.
Cheers
Kellie and Brendan (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170617/626e312152aa0e77cb644af3f3a112f7.jpg)
