I'll bring my barrel stout yeah. BBQ sounds great! Get numbers first and then we can decide on what to bring. If one person buys the ingredients it might be handier then if everyone just pitched in a few euros.
I'll bring a few pale ales and I think I've some of the ginger beer left over too.
stuck in work that morning :(, might see if i can leave early, after 13.30, sundays are pretty quite.
Too short notice for me unfortunately. >:(

Hi all. We have the option of having a Capital Brewers Hops garden at Art Tunnel Smithfield
https://www.facebook.com/arttunnelsmithfield; some of you probably pass this regularly its along the luas line there at Smithfield- a gated community garden/ outdoor art space with lots of exposure to sunlight and there would also be plenty of climability for the plants as they grow with hammock and rope installation above it... the hops when they grow would also provide an interesting and aromatic curtain for the hammock so a really symbiotic scenario could be created there.
We would just need to ask very nicely to people in the club and so on who have their own hops growing and get cuttings of a few different varieties... anyone with green fingers also would be great to have a few pointers on how to deal with the cuttings and how they should be transported and then planted and so on... not an expert on this myself!!
The art tunnel is gated but anyone who wants to can become a keyholder
also Monday evenings there is "Beer and Weeding" for a couple of hours after work... and its also right next to Dice bar which is a good place.
Sophie who runs the space was pretty enthusiastic about the hops idea and also about us having some tasting sessions/ some kind of event there which I think would be cool especially if weather stays so nice.
Be great to hear if anyone else is interested in this project, or if anyone of ye who grow hops are willing to donate cuttings hopefully of different varieties

I can bring my gas bbq if needed
That would be great! Would you like to do a brew on the day as well?
Just seeing this now sorry, I'll happily pop along and I'll do a brew (mid summer low abv 60 min IPA) if there's a kind soul who can transport my gear down.
Thanks everyone for a great day out! I think it was one of the most enjoyable ones so far!
Thank you, Padraic for organising everything. Great day all round!
Great day!
Any idea how far off we are with the barrel ?
We reckoned it was 30 litres short. I think a stout around 5-6% would be grand to fill the rest of it.

I agree, there is probably no need to brew another 30L of big beer!
