Before the idea of serving food with our homebrew at this Expo is discounted completely I'd like to clarify what I had envisaged yet didn't quite explain myself as well as I had hoped. The idea is that there would a few homebrew stalls at the Expo and the food stall would just be one of them. On the food stall there would be pre-prepared hot food being served and offering a matching beer to accompany it. Curries, chilli's, stews, etc. are all foods that can be prepared beforehand and reheated successfully in a pot over a flame source. Visually the stall will probably look very similar to the other stalls in fact!
The Well holds BBQs when the weather is favourably so serving food there would not be a problem I figure but this is something we could check.
Other stalls could include stalls dedicated to each level of homebrew expertise i.e. one stall for beginner level, one for intermediate, and one for advanced. This would allow interested parties to better grasp what’s involved in each stage and the additional equipment required, visually rather than theoretically. Manning each stall would be those willing to talk about the respective brewing process and go through the various pieces of equipment necessary for that particular level. And with a sample of beer to taste at each stall brewed at that particular level the interested party can better appreciate the eventual progression to the all grain advanced level, but can also appreciate what's achievable at the beginners using a simple kit.
