Title: Meeting Friday 10th July
Post by: itsclinto on July 06, 2015, 10:31:44 AM
It's after flying around again so i thought i'd start a thread as a reminder.  I'll be heading from drogheda as usual so whoever wants/requires a lift along the way just shout.

Just another reminder for anybody who wants to enter it to the Capital Brewers Summer Session bring along your beer.  The rules are that it has to be less than 4% and the best two judged on the night shall be put forward for the competition.

I'll be bringing a pale ale (<4%) that i haven't tasted, maybe the fuggle smash (for competition purposes) and if it works out elderflower champagne.  The elderflower wine champagne are fairly carbed because i bottled too early.  Should be fun!

I'll be on the mitch again this month I'm afraid, anniversary duty and all that.
Here's a bit of news for the agenda though. Gary in The Cross got back to me there now to confirm that they'd be very eager to host our meetings on a Friday if we'd be on for it.
It's a great spot, great selection of craft beers, including some on tap,
open for brewdays, easier to get to for new members, Matthews bus stops outside it.
What do yis reckon?
Soraghan's have been very good to us and it's handier for the Dundalk contingent (plus free sandwiches shouldn't be underrated). Could we think about alternating venues monthly?

It is a nice wee spot. Its probably the fair thing to do alternating between the two towns. We'll discuss it on Friday and see what's what.

Fair play again lads!  The cross seems a good alternative for us south louthers.  Great option aswell for our brew day now!

Cronan, I see you need a JG fitting, what kind? I probably won't be getting my fridge until August so I might be able to sort you out with what I have here

*EDIT*

I just seen this water filter crowd on Anne St. do quick connect fittings, they aren't JG but look similar, might be worth talking to them incase what I have doesnt suit http://www.thewaterfiltermen.ie/Push-Fittings

On second thoughts it doesn't look like they have a female connection  :(
