Title: Trip out to Kinsale Brewery Launch
Post by: johnrm on June 25, 2013, 03:52:15 PM
Lads and Lassies,

What say ye to a trip out to Blacks Kinsale Craft Brewery launch?

I'll pass on the drink and can bring 4 passengers as I will have to get back to Midleton.

Names here, we may need other volunteers for driving depending on numbers.

Ah come on lads!
The offer is open to Lee Valley Lads if ye want to spin out.
Its not going to be a late night as I have to travel early on Sat Morn. (famous last words!)
3 spaces left...

I'll sample the draft if available and grab a few bottles take away

If mr happy turns into mr sick on the way back I'm going to be mr sad   :(

Hi John.

Will you be able to pick up and drop around Cork? I wouldn't expect you to go as far as Blarney. If so, I would probably be in.

What time are you planning on heading from Cork John? I probably have to work late Friday, so will probably just dump the car in town and pick it up Saturday morning.

Kick off is at 8, so I reckon leave town just after 7.
mr happys parking charge is very reasonable ;)
I have to look at a map though.

I'd say we should be able to fit another vehicle in the multi-storey  :D

I doubt I will be out of work in time for the spin, so will probably just drive down myself after work. On the crazy offchance that I do get out by 7, I will give ye a bell, but I doubt it.

We're not under pressure here.
I can hang with mr happy and talk belgians, infections, krieks and geuze for a while.

Was a great night! Thanks to all who made the trip in for it, we drank the pub dry of Kinsale Pale Ale in record time! It's going to be tough to top that but I'm sure the Cork City launch at the Franciscan well will be epic aswell! Might have to stick another few kegs in the van this time just in case. I have some photos which I will stick up over the next few days. Thanks to all for the support!
