What are you on?

I am committed to the RDS, Cider Fest, Craft Beer Gig, NHC Low Alcohol Comp, Monthly group meets, BJCP training days and the March competion.

Now you want me to trekk round all sorts of breweries as well!

Are you trying for Wills: D.I.V.O.R.C.E FFS!!

Ah sod it Let me know if you get a good one that I've not been to!!

After all look what happened when 4 beer heads drove around in a car for a few days 2 or 3 years ago!!

There were details on Beoir but can't get on to see them.

I think it's a 3pm tour.

[irish_goat]

Nah I think there's a tour on anyway, just so happens the Beoir AGM was on too.

[irish_goat]

He didn't really advertise it per se, just posted in the AGM thread to say that the tour was on.

[Ciderhead]

It thought that was Vodka and Coke, I'm telling on you next time I see him

[johnrm]

So seeing as Beoir is down and the waybackmachine only goes Way back,
Whats the deal with Metalman on Saturday?

Are any Cork lads planning on heading down?

What's the appeal of brewery tours? It's just a factory

I enjoy Brewery tours sometimes you get surprised by a unique designed piece of gear like the day we visited Whitewater.

...and?

And we saw their pasteurizer that they had built themselves. Took a picture of it on my phone and showed it to English micro brewers at the Kent green hop beer tent. They were shocked by it tut tuting as they studied the picture in detail. Felt like a school kid in the school yard with a porn picture.

[johnrm]

Ah, I remember hearing about this.

Hi lads, just to clarify, tomorrow is a one-off tour I offered to do specifically because the Beoir AGM is on in Waterford, for those that are travelling down for it. Hence it only got posted on that thread on the Beoir members forum. We don't hold ever hold open tours as at the moment, we're just not set up for it. Happy to do something similar for NHCers, just make sure to get in touch well in advance so we can make sure we're around and things aren't too mental!
Cheers, Tim
