Cedar Rapids Brewing Society

Tony will be hosting the meeting this month.

We can use this post for the sign up to bring food.

The countdown has started for the next meeting at my place this month.

The address is 1722 Chestnut Lane NE. Here's a map.

I plan to have the grill going, so if you want to bring something to throw on, go for it. I will be doing some chicken breasts for sandwiches and a snack or two.

I'll have some Honey Kolsch on Tap-a-Draft to share and maybe a bomber of raspberry/peach wheat.

Hope to see all of you there!!

Hi everyone, I can't make the meeting...again. I tore my ACL in my knee Tuesday and can barely move around, just got back from a funeral for my wife's grandma, my mom went to the emergency room last night with a severed artery in her foot and I take my daughter for Kindergarten Orientation tonight.

I need to pay Derek and David for the Madison trip. Let me know how much I owe you so I can get a check to you. You can send my your address in a PM so I can mail to you ASAP.

Have fun,

Wow - rough day.

I won't make it either - but my excuse sounds so mundane in comparison I'm just going skip it.

Thanks for hosting the August Meeting. It was a wonderful spread that I wish I could have stuck around for. Good job guys.

BTW - Was the Iowa Festival of Beers that is this coming weekend discussed? Please let me know.

Thanks

Dave

Thanks, we had a great time having everyone over. We look forward to doing it again sometime.

We did discuss the Iowa Festival, but not a lot was decided. We do need to get organized - quickly. Who's coming, how long can you stay? How much beer do we plan to bring and what equipment do we need? No one said anything about T-shirts - can we still do them to raise money? Are we printing flyers about the club, sign-up sheets, etc. Who has the banner?

Sorry, but I'm kind of anal when it comes to organizing stuff. Comes from working 25 years at a nuclear plant where we plan work in minute details.

Larry has the banner and will be bringing a beer. I will be bringing the following:
1. Pad of paper for people to sign up to join the club.
2. Pens
3. Quick plastic ties.
4. Plastic picnic tap stands like the ones Mark Rippe made. I think I have around 5 - 6 of them.
5. Picnic tap.
6. Keg of beer. Not the one that I brought to the club meeting since that was fair at best.
7. CO2
8. 4 tap regulator to hook 3 other kegs up to.
9. Easel, white board and markers.
10. Coolers

I think David Ard is bringing a porter and a barley wine. I will also post this on the event forum. All feel free to add what they
