Re: South Dublin Beer Tasting Event (List of attendees)

[Bubbles]

Great news folks,

The Dark Horse has confirmed that they will host the inaugural tasting of the South Dublin branch of the National Homebrewers Club.

I have agreed Wednesday 20th March with the manager so I hope that's plenty of notice for people. I had hoped that the tasting would be a warm-up event for the competition, but I think that might be too short notice for people. Instead, it will be an opportunity for the South Dublin homebrewers to show off their winning entries!

In the meantime, get down to the Dark Horse in Blackrock and show them some support. They're owned and operated by the Galway Bay/Against the Grain folks and they've a fantastic range of craft beer in the adjoining bottle shop.

Conor.

If the 17 doesn't shaft me I'll try my best.

[JimmyM]

75 will leave you close-ish, out on the dual carriageway at stillorgan or bottom on newtownparkavenue - and it goes past the top of your road.

Only problem is It goes via Donegal and Cork.
Well thats not the only problem... It doesnt actually go to your destination either - that might be a problem.

But seriously I have to use Firefox as my phone browser now and it's rubbish for typing.

So will there be any beers that won prizes yesterday making it to this tasting?

[Bubbles]

Yip. I'll be bringing my last two bottles of Big Dawg Imperial Amber which took a bronze medal in the Specialty category. Looking forward to getting some face to face feedback on it.

I'll be bringing a couple of my other competition beers aswell. I did a Best Bitter and a Mild and I'm particularly interested in getting more feedback on these as they didn't score as well as my other entries.

Yourself Padraic? I'd love to get a taste of that cider of yours that scored 38.

Anyone else?

[Padraic]

Unfortunately the 38 point cider has already been claimed by swmbo so I won't have any to bring along. It was only a 5 litre batch so there wasn't much of it in the first place!

I'll probably bring along a 29 pointer, my other entries are all gone at this stage!

Only 6 on the list at the moment! There must be more southsiders out there brewing?

Ah yes, keeping SWMBO happy. Probably a better use for it in fairness.

Yes I thought we might have a few more signups at this stage. I'll post a new thread in the Capital Brewers forum. Maybe people are confused wondering wtf "Godfrey & tristan" is?!
