Title: Capital Meetup in Open Gate Brewery Wednesday 02/03
Post by: Hingo on February 12, 2016, 02:10:39 PM
Well we've been invited down to the Open Gate brewery, Will has sorted out a slot on the Wednesday so we'l have the place to ourselves.
Definitely worth checking out if you haven't, a bar plonked in open of the live brewery with all to see while you have a few beers. We're good to do the usual homebrew tasting there too, show these lads what we're up to.

As we're being hosted by this place, the usual etiquette to buy a couple of drinks from the bar goes.

UPDATE: The lads running open gate are really excited to have us over, they've offered a little trade option - "Fair Exchange First Drink" - 1 Tasting Flight in exchange for 1 Bottle of Homebrew. They'll obviously be running the place exclusively for us, so can't get involved in the tasting then but they can have their own later. An option for anyone that wants to bring an extra bottle sure. Presuming its 1 per person, and throw a wee label on them so they guys know what they're opening later on.

Funny you say that, just discussing it on the Whatsapp Group.

So Plan of action will actually not to split groups as a few people have said they don't want to miss out on a beer on a another table. But there'll be a choice of 2 beers in each round of tasting - you can taste both or just have 1 or sit out the round.

I did toy with the idea of limiting the total beers but we all agreed to just go with the flow and see how we get one.. However It's probably the largest meet-up done, and I wasn't expecting this much to be honest, so will need to have a plan to put some order in,

So here's the plan - Kicking off at 7 (or very shortly after it) I'm going to have a schedule of beers to taste in order so please update what you're definitely bringing before hand on the forum (otherwise it goes to the bottom of the list and tasted if we have time). If you're late - no problem, but your beer goes to the bottom of the list if we missed your round

I would say bring 3 bottles per beer (+1 optional for the taster flight deal) , but if you only have 2 left or don't fancy carrying loads, no problem. When its time to taste your beer, the bottles will be poured into a jug and passed around. There will be 2 jugs going at the same time with 2 different beers per round.

As there'll be a big group I would say we have 1 or 2 people passing out the tasters, so they can tell you what beer it is.. We've had smaller groups and the beer type gets lost along the line. 

This way everyone has a chance to get a taste of every beer if they want but if someone feels they want a break or "pick & choose" they can opt to go for 1 beer per round  (or sit out a round if you want) . I'll put some format to this plan later, and i'll refine the list in a schedule. (will try keep styles similar, or at least have the 2 beers in each round have some common denominator so it just a matter of choosing one if you want to do that way)

Any chance I could come along to this? I've been brewing for a couple of years, but could never make it to one of these before, as I'm usually working evenings. I can make this one though and can bring a mediocre offering(an American Amber).

Can't fit any more beers in there (probably should have made that call 8 beers ago but sure we are where we are) or tasters to be honest (barely enough from 3 bottles) so will have to draw the line here

Hey guys, there's often discussion about how feedback is a priority for brewers attending the meets. At a large meet such as the upcoming one it can be even harder to get feedback on your beer.

So, how about people add their beers to untappd, then people can check in and provide feedback that way? Adding homebrew is totally fine on untappd, and might also be fun to have a record of people drinking your beers. Obviously, this is only for people who want honest feedback, if you don't want someone telling you to find a new hobby don't add your beer ;)

You can do it from https://untappd.com/beer/new_beer - just update the list with a link to your beer that people can use on the night.

2. Beerfly - Brett turbo cider.

Will print these off on the night. Bring a Pen / pencil if you want to score these tasters  (given the numbers, only way to give feedback unless you sit beside the Brewer)

(http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160229/f72bad85ce50c239005c4754ece3d13b.jpg)

Same as how your score a beer on untappd - score out of 5 stars

I'll get them off you at the end of the night and update on the forum

I'll also be bringing name tags, lot of new faces so be good to put a name to the face
