Default SNIZZLE Taste Testing??

The beers we made at our last SNIZZLE get-together should be just about ready to go. We discussed getting together for a tasting (and perhaps some more brewing). How do schedules look for the next few weekends?

I can't send IM's to groups anymore, so this will have to do.

Funny, Cheese and I were PM'ing yesterday and I mentioned this.

Next weekend (5/4-5), the assistant brewer and I will be visiting her hometown of Charleston, SC. The weekend after that, she goes in for her long awaited surgery and I'll be playing nurse. And before Cheese asks, no, I won't be wearing a uniform.

Possibly the weekend of the 5/18-19th or 5/25-26th?

BTW, looks like the Gordon Biersch in Bolingbrook opens this weekend!

Not enough beer - or hard alcohol - in the world to wash away that filthy, filthy image of Rhoob in a stripper-nurse outfit, sliding down a pole. (When I think of nurses, I typically think of strippers.)

I think I'm free both of those weekends, assuming that neither of them are Mother's Day.

BTW, best wishes to Assistant Brewer in her surgery.

Thanks; I'll pass them along. She's pretty excited about it.

More excited than you???

By the way, I'm willing to host. If it's a nice night, we can do a outside thing on the patio and have a fire.

Hey, I can sweeten the deal up a bit (for a group brew).

I have the following yeast cultures available if anyone wants to group brew:

1. American Ale - 1056
2. Weihen. Hefe - 3068
3. German Ale - 1007
4. "Muntingham" (A mix of nottingham and muntons dry yeasts that I used for my cream ale)

I'm making a hefe within the next two weeks and I'll probably do either a honey hefe or another cream ale when I group brew with you guys.

I think I can make the weekend of 19/20. I've got the first two weekends in May all tied up. Is the 26/27 Memorial Day weekend? I may be able to do one of those days.

I can't do 5/19-20. I just found out over the weekend that my buddy is having a big birthday event I have to be at on the 19th and I have a banquet to attend on the 20th. My only options for May is Mammorial Day weekend.
