I'll take some wine Aidan brewed

If you are setting up a brew demo/stand you don't wait till the box-office opens. Get there about 2 hours early and get set up. Waterelectrics/tables etc. You will be amazed at the chaos!.

When you have the basics set up you can then get some water on to warm. Brewing is like the old movies "Oh my god the baby is comming - quick get the water on to boil"!

Then relax, check the free samples and chill till the public arrives.

How do I know this? Coz' I and a few others have been doing it for a few years at the RDS and Altech!

Thanks for the advice Will, but we can't physically get on site until 11, let the madness ensue!

So far the weather doesn't look too great.  Might be an issue when moving stuff but luckily we're under the tent!

Conditions are pretty poor atm. Muck everywhere. Defo bring rubber boots and plenty of layer's as it's  cold.

Great day had, that banner was the talk of the place!

What a handsome guy there

Great day again guys. Huge success

[Rossa]

Great exposure guys. Fair play.

It was pretty much a success I think. Plenty of people asking all the questions you'd like them to ask. A few headbangers on the mooch, but you can forgive that. Good craic!

That explains why the brew went to plan 

Hats off to helmet for organising the brew day and everybody for the laugh. We definitely got the name out there. It was a super day and hopefully we can do another one soon enough. Really enjoyed it

Hi lads
Great day yesterday lots of nice people asking interesting questions apart from the wild drunk lad  and his  mate Maddog who are back living in the forest and working for 12 days straight on a building site did any one swap any beer for weed !!!!
I think we gain one or two new members also and met some genuine nice people
Thanks helmet for coming up with the idea and all the work you put in I am hoping to have stout samples ready for June meeting

[danger_zone]

Haha I couldn't believe it when he took the drugs out in front of us

I thought it was pretty cool that yer one from the pub thought we were commercial and wanted to stock our beers

I don't buy the living in the forest story. You just know he lives in an apartment full of Ikea furniture somewhere!
