No interest for 'a day in beer heaven'? Real, local, kildare cask ale to be tapped for beoir and homebrew club members brewed by us in trouble brewery, tapped / served in boyles pub and then an evening of award winning beer drinking tasting banter and food straight from the garden at maltcrackers beer heaven?.   No takers?

[auralabuse]

Sounds amazing, but alas, as usual I'm in work

[Simon_]

Is this suitable for bringing young kids along?

[Dr Jacoby]

Hi Bren/Kellie, myself and a friend will be heading out to this. It'll be the evening before we can make it out though. That ok?

[brenmurph]

@ simon f  on this occasion its a pub based event for the afternoon the maltcracker base is open afterwards. So I's say this event is not really suitable for  children

@ dr jacoby thats ok you will need to touch base on the day as we will be in Boyles pub from early afternoon to early evening not sure yet of exact finishing time in pub

Great news! Managed to get the day off so Bren and Kellie, I'll be there! Tricia won't be able to attend although.

Had meeting tonight with the boyles. Official meet up 2pm saturday. A great day is guaranteed, great beer and should (as usual ) be great banter, beer and craic.

Theres enought interest that this event is going ahead. Guests will not be dissapointed as always maltcracker events are the best.
This time its both homebrew and local craft ale we brewed ourselves that sadly for me and credit to Mark and the lads at trouble is as good as beer gets re balance, flavour and drinkability......as good as anything we can produce at home.....so just one cask of this ale  but plenty of this fine ale on tap from the kegs in the pub as well.
Boyles have a great offy in the pub...judy boyle is a beer sommellier and is proud of her off licence which only stocks beer she has QC'd herself

so roll on saturday for the maltcracker cask ale ( real local ale) event and as rueben says " then go drink bren dry at his brewery"  but I dought if ye lads will manage that.....we brew a lot! and stock is good at the moment! Please feel free to spread the word to your friends and real beer fans
