I have found a few clubs in Northern Virginia however I was looking for a group or club or associate to compare and contrast with in my area. Didn't know where to start so I thought I would throw it out there.
I have plenty of room in woodbridge with a brutus 10 setup if anyone is interested. Jays is a good idea as well.
Think I'll check out Jay's this weekend. That indeed would be a great place to facilitate an area brew club. Let's see how interested they may be. My rig is on wheels but I wouldn't consider it mobile unless there was a truck involved!
I'm about to start a rig build and would love to find time to see yours in action. I've been to lots of mash-ups/Brew gatherings but the more I learn about other's rigs the better.
I think Jay's is opening today for the first time at the new location. Wish I had the time to shoot over there. I'd really like to convince them that they need to start a club and do weekend mashes in their parking lot.
Just for what its worth, saw on NoVa craigslist today someone has a 15.5 gal keggle (electric) setup for sale, might be a pretty good score. Jus sayin'
Planning a trip to Jay's new location on Saturday. Who's up for it?
Going to Jays around 12-1230 tomorrow

Really excited to get started soon and I just recently saw that Jay's Brewing moved about a mile from my house in Manassas. I went in and met Derek on Saturday and am even more excited to start. I had a whole plan of what I would be ordering from Northern Brewer to get started and now that I have met Derek I'm looking forward to supporting a local business.
Personally I viewed it as a "sign" that a brew supply store opened a mile from my house after showing interest in this hobby. Seems it was meant to be...
Sidenote, I scored some Hopslam, Dogfish Head 120 and Nugget Nectar this weekend and I had to drink it alone. Need to get a good group in the local area for brewing and drinking.
