Title: Homebrew beer tasting meetup - April 30th (WJ Kavanaghs)
Post by: Padraic on March 29, 2013, 01:30:32 PM
A month to go between now and the next tasting session. I would suggest that we all try to brew a nice pale ale for this meet up but whatever you have from the cellar will be very welcome.

I would also like to encourage people to bring in any beer that is tasting off so that we can have discussion on this after the event. If you can't make it or want to drop your beer to me so that it is anonymously tasted. (PM me to arrange)

Kickoff will be at 19:00 which leaves you a chance to get some food beforehand (for this i recommend our hosts!)

As is tradition:

Added to my calender so that I can finally make some sort of beer related meeting. I will be bringing along my Black IPA for post mortem reasons.

Sorry I didn't make it in the end.  Didn't get out of work till late. Didn't miss the sore head this morning though!

Likewise, apologies. Got home and the wife vetoed me so I had to cover babysitting duties.

I had a bad hangover going into the meet last night but came out feeling great. The wild boar burger might have helped ;)

Some great beers on show. I think my favourite was the IPA with the lovely mango/tangerine aroma. Lovely stuff - can't remember the brewer's name sorry!

I think that one was Dan's?

A great night! As always! Does anyone want to do a write up for the front page?

I felt grand this morning as well, I also had the boar burger.... maybe that is a thing?!?
