Poll
I would almost set aside part of a future brew to experiment with that.
I'd have only given one choice then. :)
31/10 is good for me. I think I even voted for it in the first place.
Hope to be back in time for the meet
My brew will be ready next meet.

Option 1: 17 October
votes: 2
Option 2: 18 October
votes: 1
Option 3: 31 October
votes: 9
Option 4: 1 November
votes: 2
Option 5: Other

Should hopefully be able to make this one this time, only thing I might have to bring is a cider. Or I could bring a karl strauss big barrel double ipa I won over in the states, it's been staring at me in the fridge long enough.

My cider and ales need a bit longer to be perfectly conditioned but I might bring two wee bottles of the cider to try it.

Ah, so you've got some Belgians then? Any sours?
Will I get in touch with the Fran Well? 5 to 10 bods by the looks of it.

I just finished my first brew but no sours yet :(
Hopefully some day.
My first brew is a Belgian style amber ale but it still needs an extra fermentation on the bottle so will be ready in about 8 weeks.
A golden ale is currently fermenting but will take a while too.
I can't make this Friday but would love to attend the next meet up.
I have two ciders ready but they would need a bit of time as well in my opinion as they're very gassy now and time will make them a lot better

I can't make it this Friday, as will be away supping ale in London.
Can people who are definitely going on Friday stick their names down, so we can confirm numbers? 5 people voted for Friday, but need to gauge if that many are actually going, as maybe some people voted for a few options or are now not going.

I had voted to 17th, but personal circumstance don't permit, so the number is 4.
Realistically the 31st is the next slot for me.
