National Homebrewers Conference Check In

[Matt F]

If someone wants me to print some blank tags I can. I made a sheet with 5 fronts and 5 backs. I just wrote my info in by hand. I resized to be about the dimensions Tony mentions.

Per their website:

"LABELING YOUR BEERS

For those that received the GrogTags for your kegs, please wrap the label around the handle of your keg. Do not stick them on the side of your keg."

[Matt F]

Cool. Should be able to do the same with some packing tape.

[whitedj]

Matt, do you have a couple extra of the blanks that I could just hand write?

[Matt F]

Sure do. I will bring a couple extra sheets for folks to use. We'll need some packing tape too. Not sure if I have any. Will have to check at home.

[JimF]

I've got several rolls and can bring some. I'm still going to try to make some after work and will post if I come up with something usable.

Can someone print 2 tags for me? I don't have a color printer. Here's my info:

Beers:
Bicentennial IPA
ShakesBeer Stout

Brewer: Randy Carris
Phone: 319-721-2442

Thanks!

Randy,
I think they turned out pretty good. I'll cut them out and laminate them with shipping tape and we should be good. We will need some double sided tape, or maybe just a stapler to fasten them around the handles. Anyone else?

Because Inquiring Minds Like Ours Would Like To Know?

WHO'S GETTING THE 3 BEER LOGO (Balls, Brewery Vagrant, and Flounders) POSTERS MADE???

I'd hate to see all of Jim's brother's art work go to waste. If Jim isn't doing it, he needs to post the high res copies so someone else can. We're down to the short strokes folks!

[JimF]

I finally got around to finishing the cease and desist order. Let me know if we want to include it and I'll print it out.

[tony b]

Funny!!

I enjoyed this tonight good show

Matt,

What you think about meeting at the subway in Le Claire, 1/2 mile east of junction of I-80 and US 67?
Just give me a jingle or text from someone when you leave and I'll leave and be there waiting. Probably 50 minutes for me to reach Le Claire. McDonald's might be easier to spot from I-80, but it's further down the service/entrance road back-tracking towards the interstate.

Also, I'm open if anybody wishes to ride shotgun. Dual-air, motorized seat, moonroof. Built-in Navigation.
Shane

That works great Shane. I know the place. The Subway is in a grocery store there. I will meet you in the parking lot. We'll be in the 1995 Green Toyota Land Cruiser full of assholes pulling a trailer.

[JimF]

Summary of last nights meeting:
-Randy is going to bring the trailer to Dan's house [1175 Brockman Ave, Marion] on Tuesday the 10th around 8PM.
Bar is going to be loaded; if you have other stuff [kegs, luggage, etc.] that needs to go into the club trailer please bring it or make arrangements with someone to have it present.
Trailer will be going with Matt the evening of the 10th.

- Everyone in Matt's car is to meet at Matt's house at 8AM on 6-11.
-Jim is planning on picking people up? (plan to be ready just before 8AM)

When on the road Matt's car will notify Shane; We will meet at 3-floyds for lunch and a refreshing beverage.

Action Items:
Shane is going to bring his CO2 tank as a backup
Tim is going to pick up a CO2 tank for club use
Tim is going to rig up some PVC to hang our banner from. This will need to include some type of supports. FYI the bar top is only 7' 6".
Dan will get the bar as far as it can go, and will pack a toolkit.

Are we just using binder clips to attach the posters to the banner?

Dan, can I drop off my 2 kegs at your house tonight (Monday)? My wife has been out of town since Friday and tomorrow night is the only time we'll get to see each other before I leave...

Tom T,
I didn't see you at the last conference meeting. We are planning to leave around 8 am Wednesday. Does that work for you?
