Venue: Tog, Chancery Lane, Dublin 8 (www.tog.ie)
Cost: Free (Donations will be accepted, by tog or the capital brewers)

Format:
Brewing -  All Grain, possibly Extract and a Kit
Beers - I'll be bringing a few of mine, hopefully others can bring theirs
Building - Has anyone got anything they might like to build during the event (ie a stir-plate perhaps)?

Kick off at 10:30 (finishes around 4.30 depending on the complexity of the brew's), see you there! If the weather is good that weekend we can plan out the logistics for a full barbecue for breakfast and lunch. We can see about that closer to the time.

A very rough time-line of a brew day is as follows:

    10:30am – 11am: Heating water, water treatment and mashing grain
    12pm – 1pm: Boiling, BBQ, beer tasting from previous brews and visitors beers
    2pm – 3pm: Cooling and clean up

Hi Shiny.
Was probably going to get a taxi unless there is another option.... 8)

Can't wait for tomorrow now have all ingredients ready to go and I'll be polishing my mashtun later!  :D

Awesome! I will have the place open before you arrive. I'm going to be bottling the cider tomorrow that is finished fermenting in TOG at the moment. I'm going in there this evening to add the sweetener and flavouring.

Ridiculously short notice but I have put up the post on the TOG webpage.

if your filling a bottle from a tap it will be ok for a day or so

Ciaran I have packed those hops for you. I nearly have as much equipment with me for bottling as I normally bring for brewing.  >:(
