Hey All,
Confirmed date for BrewCon 2018:
Saturday 12th May 2018
Venue: Smock Alley Theatre Dublin
Links and details to follow. In the meantime, however, it may be necessary to give your better half a new 2018 diary, having torn out the page headed 'May 12' first.
Have a great weekend!

Hi,
I'm a full member, but have no idea what the promotional code is. Can someone message it to me. Would like to sign up for BrewCon asap before it's fully booked.
Thanks,
Sok

Hi All,
With just over 8 weeks to go, we're making a big push to get the remaining tickets sold for this year's BrewCon event.
Remember: this event is designed to appeal to beginner and advanced brewers alike. Even if you, or someone you know, is thinking about taking up homebrewing for the first time, what better way to get the ball rolling than be gaining some invaluable tips and knowledge from the horses' mouths; from our guest speakers and from fellow homebrewers.
The post-conference club nights have already attained legendary status. The beer will be flowing and the only background noise will be the buzz of homebrewers from all round the country, from the full spectrum of skill levels having the crack and sharing tips and insights with each other. Make new friends, meet old friends but, most importantly, kick back and have a laugh.
So spread the word to your fellow club members, friends, cousins, aunties, parish priest, anyone you think would be interested in attending this excellent event!
Cheers,
-Barry

Yeah. That was a newsletter mail out to all members reminding them about BrewCon. Seems a lot of the recipients got blank emails. A 'feature' of the forum's newsletter engine it would seem.
Apologies to all of you who received blank emails, but the sentiment is more or less please try and make every effort to attend BrewCon, and try to encourage any brewing friends to do the same. We need your help to make this, a success and future events still viable.

Hi folks,
Just to remind all:
Access to the Club Night is by pre-purchased ticket only - there will be no tickets available on the day.
Remember: No Nametag = No Entry & people will be asked to leave if they try to gain access without a ticket.
An Additional Club Night ticket is now available, but only to an existing full ticket holder. However it must be booked & paid for by original guest, after which I will get the name of their guest for the tag. The original ticket holder needs to contact us/PM us to get the code. Cost is €22.14 inc fees.
Cheers,
-Barry

Thanks to all who work so hard in putting it all together.
