Title: New North Dub Member
Post by: BrewDunne on October 07, 2018, 09:59:08 AM
Hi Guys

After a mate got fed up with never knowing what to order me in the pub he bought me a homebrew kit.

I've made a few successful brews (from brew kits) and enjoyed the process. Now I've stopped buying beers (unless I see something I want to try out) and mostly drink my own stuff.

I joined the club as I wanted to learn more and progress to actually brewing and not just fermenting. Planning on attending the next Capital Brewers meet. North county brewers is an option but I work in town so its easy for me to attend the Capital Brewers meets and have a few beers.

My Chief Marketing Officer (aka my girlfriend) designed the label for my first brew as a bit of a joke.

Looking forward to meeting other beer/brewing enthusiasts.

Cheers
Colin

One of us. One of us.

We meet up twice a month in the north county. Swords early in the month and malahide later. I'm sure one will work for you.
Very active WhatsApp group.
BBQ and Brew days hosted my multi gold medal winning brewers.  :D

Thanks for the welcome. I'll make a cal on it tomorrow.

I'd prefer a city spot so I don't have to drive. Anyone brewing non-alcoholic beer in Swords Nigel?  ; :laugh:
