Anybody going?

I'll be there to support my old buddy Hamish Ward from Deep Creek Brewery. We all know someone who has said 'Yeah, wouldn't it be cool if we actually brewed beer?' and I am immensely proud to know someone who has actually done it.

It would be cool to actually meet some of you in the flesh so to speak so if you are there on Saturday evening PM me or post on here and say 'Hi'.

Didn't anybody tell you I was a hacker?

I won't be there. I'd very much like to be, but its not happening for me this year.

So instead I will stay home and bottle the batch of stout that should be finished fermenting any minute now.

Not gonna make it this year :( But to make up for it I'll be off to the US and A in a few weeks... and I'll certainly be sampling some brewskis. Went last year and it was a BLAST.

Am going, but on Friday

I'm a geek, a gamer, a dad, a Quic user, and an IT Professional. I have a full rack home lab, size 15 feet, an epic beard and Asperger's. I'm a bit of a Cypherpunk, who believes information wants to be free and the Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it.

How badly is it likely to hurt my wallet to go?

The wallet definitely takes a hit, but its well worth it, and it goes for an extra hour this year too. This will be my 3rd year in a row!

Didn't realise this. Will either have to pace myself better or take an extra hours worth of beer money!

Going to the Friday night session. 4th year in a row going.

I find it hard to pace myself with so many beers I want to try haha. Kinda wish I got a ticket for one of the homebrewing master classes, especially the one done by Joseph Wood, love those Liberty Beers, but the Saturday evening session is all I could really go to.
