Right lads this is happening on Friday so I need to know who is definitely coming to help out so I can put you on the guest list.
So far I am pretty sure of:
1. thebeernut
2. sbillings
3. my wife (moral support and camera person)
4. richieh (talking about his beer)
5. irishpartyale (talking about his beer)
The night will go something like this.
I will kick it off with a talk about the homebrew process with a taste of my two chocolate beers, one for extract (chocoholic stout) and the other all grain (chocawheat).
When I am done, I will invite Irishpartyale up to talk about his beer and give out samples. Then the same process for Richie.
Then I will introduce Dean McGuinness who is representing Hilden to talk about Mollys chocolate stout.
Once the talks are done it will be a questions and answers time. I will then call thebeernut and sbillings up to join us as both have a lot of experience with tasting beer and brewing beer respectively.
At this time we will be providing samples of other beers such as my Cloaked stranger stout.
I organised a competition or raffle to happen on the night. The prize is a homebrew start set and stout kit along with some DME donated by Brian in homebrewwest. The nature of the competition has yet to be decided upon.
We will have a lot of flyers to hand out, as well as ICB stuff on brewing we will have 100 flyers I had brian do up promoting special offers on his site. I will also mention that joining ICB will give you a discount.
There will be a pouring table to the left of the talk table where the samples will be poured.
Can volunteers be there for 6 if possible?
So that is more or less it, if anyone has any questions then let me know.
