What am I? Chipped Beef and Old Milwaukee?
I said "short" description, I think. That's not you either!
Edwort is funny and intelligent- and very easy to be around.
(And every one of the ones I mentioned and the ones I didn't are much more than all that, of course. That's just what stuck me!)

I would agree with all your "short" observations.
What a great bunch of people! I have not seen so many geeks in one room since a Microsoft TechEd party.
I'm working on my pictures. I hope to have them up later today after I travel up to visit family.

Ok, here's a few pics before I hit the road this morning.
This is how over 90% of the people viewed Yoopy at around 1 AM on Club night.
Darn auto focus.
Here's our Wonderful custom hand made club sign for Club night shown by BrewWench.
Ohiobrewtus & BrewWench with Yoopy in the back and just a tinge of Clayof2day on the right.
MrFebtober and ChrisK by our beautiful custom hand made HBT club sign.
Club night was a hoot! The soft pretzels were a hit and ollllo's SWMBO (Brenda) was cranking them out in the end after folks found out there were HOT soft pretzels with mustard at the HBT table.

It was great fun watching the video Friday night! Thanks again to olllllo for setting that up and for all at the NHC for manning the table and entertaining all that weren't able to attend.

LOL. Edwort: BrewinMama = BrewWench in all your pics
BrewinMama is OhioBrewtus' wife, and BrewWench (me) is MrFebtober's wife. I have the "Julie" name tag on.

Here are some of the photos that we were able to get:
My wife and I with Jim Koch
Dinner Friday at a Japanese steakhouse
That's RichBrewer at the top, then Clayof2day and EdWort followed by my SWMBO, olllllo and Yoop.
The massive pile of kegs (I heard it was over 600) waiting for people to pick them up for Club Night

The Busty Wenches of club night (one of those should look familiar)
Lunch at the Hofbrauhaus on Saturday
L to R that's me, my swmbo (brewingmama), Yoop, RichBrewer, PseudoChef and EdWort. MrFebtober, BrewWench, Clayof2day and ChrisK also showed up shortly after.

Some of the 1000 brewers in attendance. The most assembled in one place over 8000 years of brewing history according to Jim Koch.
Photoshopping opportunity?
Some of the more elaborate booths.

For some reason, this is the only picture I have of it. Before you ask, yes it is/was very real and very illegal moonshine. I tried to get Justin to take a shot on the air, but he wouldn't do it.
I ran into a nice guy, Billy D in that runs a local brewshop in Ohio.
He has some cool photos of the NHC here

and some other brew resouces.
Check out some of the Jim Koch pix and vids.

Thank you. I knew he was a member but for the life of me I couldn't remember his name.
I'm glad I checked that out. I actually talked to him for quite a while on Friday night. He was standing right next to me during the 'Busty Wench' contest and had a great IPA he shared with me.

I was really impressed by this as well. I don't know how many people were crammed into that one room for Club Night, but it was a lot. I never saw anyone getting out of hand or starting anything. Everyone was just having a good time (especially us).
Everyone that we met this weekend was great. We couldn't have asked for a better group of people to meet for the first time from HBT.
I may be louder than Yooper, but I certainly talk less.
There were some genuinely amazing beers available on Friday. I worked up the courage to try the moonshine (which seemed to be roughly 99.9% alcohol
), and some Bacon Vodka, which was really pretty good. Hands down, the best beer I had all weekend was Brewtopia's Grapes of Wrath. It was so good that I *almost* wish I would have kept it to myself, but a chance to share it with fellow HBT'ers was just too good to pass up. Justin from BN and Steve White from White Labs also got samples of this and were very impressed. I told Justin to squeeze in a plug for Naked City Brewing and this amazing beer if he wanted more. He got more, but I'm not sure if he got the plug in or not.
Told the wife it was in San Fran next year.
"Oh, we're so there! I'll save all my personal days!"
(I'm not going to count on anything QUITE yet, though....)

Here's John Blichmann with his new bling. This is his modular brew rack that is totally adjustable. I told him I was proud owner of two of his Blingmann kettles. He got a kick out of the play on his name.
We served up 60 of these hot soft pretzels. They could barely fit in my freezer in my hotel room. I cooked the up in the oven and brought them over and ollllo and Brenda were reheating them and the crowed ate them up.
Chad from the Brewing Network back for his 3rd pretzel!!
This The Cincinnati Malt Infusers club table. It begs a caption!

I think that everyone but EdWort got to try GoW (it's all a bit hazy
). I had planned on opening it while we were at our booth but there was so much going on that we never got to it until club night was over and we moved to the hospitality suite. By then it was probably 2am or so, olllllo found the bottle still unopened so PseudoChef uncorked it for all to enjoy (all that were there anyway). Sorry to everyone who was there but didn't get to try it!
Damn. I might just have to find a way to go next year. Thats a long flight and I am by no standards rich but it looks like a wonderful time. I would love to see some of the seminars that would be awsome.

Wow, I've been away from the PC too long. Just wanted to pile on the praise and how great it was to meet, and drink with, such great folks. I had a wonderful time and I'm really glad so many people were documenting the experience (to fill in a few blanks here and there). Thanks for posting so many great pics!
That was the couple that poured Berliner Weiss at your brewout, wasn't it?
I totally forgot that they said they were going to be there. It's too bad, because if they went solo, we could have introduced them to the gang.

Really .... that was sooo cool to broadcast that night. I spent the rest of the weekend popping on from time to time to look for more broadcasts. Thanks for the effort in including those of us whom wish we were there !!!!
Cheers Guys (_)>
I had a great time. Felt like I was there. Thanks olllllo. I never got my trip to the ladies room and at times felt like max headroom wandering around the floor...man there were a lot of furry bellies there.
OMFG. I almost woke up the house with my cackling when someone told Yooper to go motorboat the big dude in the orange shirt.
