NHC 2010 Photos
 

I haven't had time to edit, but I loaded all of my photos from the NHC so far to photobucket.

OK when I first looked at #69 I thought you had your hand in Kai's pants. (Which went a long way towards explaining the big smile on his face.)

PTN

where is the 2011 conference going to be held?

San Diego. The theme for the DVD was "Some Like it Hoppy", with a lot of beach scenes. I can't go, probably, since my brewing budget won't allow it. It looks like a great time for beer!

I added a couple more pictures to the photobucket link.

It was a great time again this year- and I had some phenomenal beers. This year there were tons of meads and ciders, along with some perry, and some of the meads were fabulous.

Gordon Strong got the Ninkasi award (again!). Randy Mosher got the Rognition Award, presented by Ray Daniels.

All of the seminars were good, but the mead ones were very good and very well attended. Kaiser's talk (9:00 AM on Saturday, BTW!) was wonderful and very well received by all.

Sweet! I am so there. My daughter lives there and now I have great excuse to head out.

Great pics Yoop! Wish I coulda been there. Brewed 15 gallons of Wounded Knee IPA today.

I missed you, Ed! There was a great group, but I did think of you and some of the others that were with me in Cincinatti and missed you guys.

I'm glad that you brewed today- especially an IPA. So much better than those "girly" beers like kolsch. :D

I'm still smiling ;)

Yooper, Thanks for posing the pics.

Kai, it was a total blast hanging out with you. I'll never forget the "interview from an elevator". Thanks for being such a good sport. Your talk on efficiency was wonderful- I have some great things to take away from that seminar. Thanks again!

What month will next years NHC be? We make a trip out each summer to visit family in SoCal, and I would love to have it coincide in 2011 with this!

I was a lot of fun indeed. I'll have to see if I can make next year's NHC.
