This is for people in the industry by the look of it. How much are they charging I wonder.

Pearse Lyons is the Head of Alltech.

I wrote an article about it. Discount code of €65 off.

Also I have the contact details of one of the girls involved. If it's something that NHC was interested in attending, though I'm not sure if it suits the homebrew industry as such.

I would be interested in going. I'm a student in Belfast- you think they'd be happy with that for discount- spose just contact them and see

Anyone else from here going?

There's a student price of €65 (with ID) but I'm not sure how you get it. I didn't see student as an option when registering so best contact them.

Rossa and James did some great smoozing tonight. I pretty sure they have some news (they cornered Bruce from the ICBF as well so I'm guessing a deal was done there too)

I have been trying to get some form details for about four weeks. I should have the details very soon and any possible involvement from the club.  While I'm at it is there anything members would like to see us do or participate in at the conference?

Do tell. Off air if needs be.
The alltech guys will be at the launch tonight. I just got an email there saying that we would chat tonight but as it looks they don't want to make it look cheap so there will be a price. That I still cannot confirm but yet but it will be similar to what we have seen elsewhere I think.

I'm going. I registered as a student and it cost €85 (not €65 as mentioned on this thread previously). The full price seems a bit steep for a two day event, but presumably most delegates will be in the trade and they expect it will be covered by the firm and written off as a business expense.

Has anyone else registered?

I'm going as a Blogger. Free for me.

Did you register for the Introductory or Intensive option?

Actually, I'm a numpty. I just checked the credit card statement and my registration cost $85 US. the euro total came to €66.22 (incl. €1.13 bank fee), I.e. pretty much the student rate is €65 after all. I signed up for the introductory sessions of course!

I want to go to a mix of sessions, some of the introductory and some of the intensive ones. No one seems to know if its possible to do that....
