Signup NOW IN PROGRESS!! See end of thread!!

Ok, here's the plan we agreed on yesterday at the Spring Brew Day tasting. Much fun was had by all, more fun by others who nearly burned themselves playing with bottle rockets.

Saturday October 11, 2008 + 11:00am
Joppa, MD (about 10-15 miles north of Baltimore City just off I-95

Group brew will be Jamil's Robust Porter (AG) from his book "Brewing Classic Styles." I've made this recipe before, and it is fantastic, and a great dark hearty brew for the winter.

Bring some homebrew, and maybe we'll even bust out the grill and make some burgers and dogs and such while we brew.

PM me for directions closer to the event, as I don't actually live there yet (moving in next week).

As we get closer, we need a good headcount, and I will get all the ingredients ahead of time so we don't have to rely on people bringing this and that. I will figure out what we need and how much each 5 gallon batch costs ahead of time. Bring cash to pay for your share of the ingredients. Looking at the recipe - I would assume it will be somewhere in the neighborhood of $20-25 for a 5g batch. (16 pounds of grain and 2.5oz hops)

Recpie for those who care can be found here:

A ProMash Recipe - Robust Porter

(Note: For those of you who were at the last brewday and need to chip in yet for ingredients - you can paypal me - jezter6 &at& gmail.com - it was $17.25 per 5g batch)

Be prepared! Brew now so you have beer to share and trade!

I've prepared this date in advance for people who have a rough time making it to our poorly planned usual events. :)

See you in October!

Address - 325 Joppa Crossing Ct, Joppa MD 21085. Do not go to 325 Joppa Crossing ROAD, different place. I am at the nexus of the universe - the corner of Joppa Crossing and Joppa Crossing. :P

wait... we have to pay? JIO JIP JIP JIP

i sent you 17.25 shekles

I have it on my calendar for now.

I'll get you some green for all the tobacco I enjoyed.

Also, anyone want to start a IMHBT Group for our malted multitude of motley mashing motherf'ers?

Oh, sorry about the tacos, man. I didn't know when I went to get them.

I've got it on the calendar! Can't wait to come out and brew with you guys. :mug:

i was looking for EXL yesterday to suggest that he do it :) since hes bored alot~! I actually started one.... but got busy, and gave up at that :)

Drac: No worries on the hookah tobacco bro. We left 5g extra brew with EXL though since we did 20 gallons down if you want to get in touch with him to find a way to get it. Just because you were passed out on the lawnchair smoking hookah doesn't mean you weren't present for the making of the beer.

I'm a bit busy to make the group, but will definately be joining up whenever someone else makes it!

In the meantime - get the word out. Find ADX! Find flytact! Get it on the calendar! Biggest. Brewday. Evar.

*bump* - let's start getting a good list of people together. I want this event planned slightly more than our usual menagerie. :)

did you post in the group as well?

we should all add the group to our sigs :)
