gotta come BOBBY_M.. I'm a big recent fan of your work!!
BTW... "I like cold beverages... I like cold beverages..."

also.. maybe even the Brooklyn Brewery =)
 
If it's a tri-state meet-up we can make it more central. But I do like the idea of a good beer garden!
 
I'd be up for meeting NYC homebrew people. Will definitely not be going to Staten Island though. Other options all look good to me. Spuytin is a temple of good beer.
 
Yeah I don't wanna go to staten island... I would go to that place to check it out but not to meet up for HBT....
 
Being from long island, a train ride to the city would be nice. Haven't been to any brewpubs there. Might have some friends that might be interested too. I would hope we would do this on A saturday nigt?
 
The city is the obvious answer then if people want to come from the tri-state area. I mentioned SI only because I know where Bobby M lives and figured it would be central between the 2 main groups trying to meet up. Plus Killmeyer's is awesome for beer, and overall fairly quiet this time of year which is conducive to a meet-up where people are looking to talk.

But what about the smell? :)
 
Since Fresh Kills landfill used to be the largest landfill in the world the joke and the smell will be around for a lot more than 10 years.

I bought a growler of Maduro Oatmeal Brown Ale @ Bierkraft a few weeks ago and it was delicious. Last night I tried Humidor Marshal Zhukovs Imperial Stout (excellent), Cubano Espresso Maduro (I liked Oatmeal more), Coriander Winter Warmer (very good), Mango IPA cask (didnt like it too much, not an IPA drinker plus I thought it was a little on the warm side), Double Cream Ale cask (too warm and I think it would be better if carbonated). I also tried Rodenbach Grand Cru which was sour if you are into that kind of beers but this was not from Cigar City.

This is going on tonight until 7 in LI.
 
I can make it... it's the day before my cheese making class =)
top on my list is Radegast Hall because I have never been there and it looks cool... but I am cool with any of the places mentioned...

was this a joke? http://gowanusbrewery.wordpress.com/

I was looking it up on google.. is that someone's house here?
 
If the topic of another day comes up, then I would be into Saturday, March the 27th.
 
Should work for me.

As far as the spot I suggest Fourth Ave Pub in Brooklyn. Here are the reasons why.

1) Place has 27 taps - http://www.beermenus.com/fourth-avenue-pub

2) On the same block is another place with 16 taps - http://www.beermenus.com/pacific-standard

3) Across the street is another place with 25 taps - http://www.beermenus.com/cherry-tree-bar

4) Withing walking distance is the best beer store in NY - http://www.bierkraft.com/

5) Located within 3 blocks of Atlantic / Pacific train station which is only 2 stops from Manhattan, gateway between Brooklyn and Queens, Long Island.
 
Maybe next time for me. I live on the east end of the Island out in Manorville (LIE exit 70). It's a bit of a haul for me to Brooklyn or Staten Island. I hope you guys enjoy.
 
Years ago when I brewed I would go to NYCHG, and also MBAS, but since coming back I have not. I've been thinking of coming back to the meetings.
 
The meetings are good - interesting speakers, including brewers/brewery reps with samples. The meetings are very busy, apparently membership has something like doubled in the past year.
 
Another option as to location is Brouwerij Lane. It's a growler/bottle shop in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. They have 19 taps and an excellent selection of bottled beer. You can drink on the premises and half pints are $2 and full pints $4. The manager/employees are also homebrewers and we could bring in homebrew to sample...

Want to check with them? See if BYOB is cool? If so, that might be a good spot.
