How you met people IRL through here?

[TxBrew]

Curious to know how many people have met members through this forum in real life. For brewing or drinking or just hanging out, doesn't matter. Have you met a member through here face to face?

 

[zoebisch01]

I was going to meet up with Cheese when I went to Chicago, but I was traveling with a group. Otherwise I would have been a yes.

Oh wait I forgot! I should have voted yes doh! Sorry Phil! :fro:

 

[FlyingHorse]

Not yet, but I hope to. Maybe Denver next year...

 

[the_bird]

I think it's eight people I've met so far...

Glibbidy
Evanmars
Hippie
Vermicious
2nd Street
Chillhayze
Kaiser
Boston

And, I'm heading down to DC to visit family, but I'm going to meet up with Orpheus and Dude when I'm down there. Bnutting's in the area, we just haven't been able to connect on the last couple brew sessions. And, Jester's promised to come down (and bring his SWMBO) the next time Yankee Ingenuity has a get-together (which needs to be soon, before Chill leaves).

And, I'm happy to report - everyone I've met so far is just pretty damn cool. We all just seem to get along like long-lost friends. This site :rockin:

 

[2nd Street Brewery]

Pretty much same as bird. I've been able to meet up the New England gang a couple of times for brew days so far. Everyone has been cool. Been thinking of hosting one here in NY since I can't drink much and then drive home(let you get a DWI:cross: ) Maybe after Labor day if that's not too close to the family friendly day that bird was planning.

 

[c.n.budz]

not yet, but I would. I don't know how many CT people are on this place....

How fast do you drive? You're about two hours, maybe a little more than that, from my place, Gilb's, or 2nd Street's. I've driven further than that to get to Kai's. You're certainly welcome to come up to any of our gatherings (I thinl Glib is planning one fairly soon).

 

[olllllo]

Met:
Cheesefood
Dude
desertBrew
Nate
Boston
Walker-san
wild
already knew AZMTNBiker

Tonite (in DEN):
RichBrewer
Brewtopia
Brewpastor
Tomorrow:
clayof2day

Everyone I met so far would be welcome in my home anytime and I would meet anyone of them for a beer again.

 

[Brewer3401]

Maybe we could ask the admin to set up a new section.
Maybe call it Brewer's Locations.

Cool, keep your eyes posted on the "gatherings" forum. If Glib can't host, I'm going to do something probably late July, after I get back from DC/VA. Brewing with my buddies is so much more fun... and we'll probably do something that included the SWMBOs and little ones, pretty much everyone seems to have kidlings in the 0-5 range.

 

[Hermish]

I met someone that I sold some extra equipment to when I was in San Diego, but it was a pretty quick sale and that was it. Now that I'm Louisiana there are a lot less brewers around.

 

[Cheesefood]

Met:
Rdwj
rhoobarb
Snakebone
olllllllo

 

[Yooper]

I met Wolf briefly when I was in Milwaukee at an Admirals game. He gave me a homebrew and some Dogfish Head 90 Minute IPA that he didn't care for. His homebrew was great (I think a stout, IIRC) and the DFH was awesome, too.

I'm hoping to meet up with the SEWAGE group- but that's about a 5 hour drive for me. Someday, I will!

 

[Orpheus]

And, I'm heading down to DC to visit family, but I'm going to meet up with Orpheus and Dude when I'm down there.

I voted yes, as our plans have been made. DFH here we come!

 

[Yuri_Rage]

Wanted to meet the gang at AHA. Conflicting plans changed that. I'm still bummed.

 

[rdwj]

Met

1. Cheesefood
2. Rhoobarb
3. Snakebone
4. FermentEd

Hopefully we can get a SNIZZLE / SEWAGE outing going so we can meet some of the Wisconsin guys

 

[homebrewer_99]

I met up/drank w/Gaelone, now Toilet Rocker and his soon to be SWMBO in NJ.

Shared a keg then some with desiderata in Savannah, GA.

And a brewer in Austin who's name escapes me (I don't think he's here anymore).

There was another member I met up with who sold all his equipment in York, PA, a couple of years ago. I went to his house to pick up everything, but he was quitting (drinking, brewing, etc.), so I did not partake (with).

 

[pjj2ba]

One local so far. Hopefully I'll meet some more at the Beer Expo here at the end of July. If someone would like to stop in and say hi before then, I've got some free hop plants. My experiments in layering worked and I have extra of Cascade, Glacier, Liberty and Tettnang. I might have also have some Sterling. Of course some beer samples too.

 

[DeathBrewer]

Supposed to meet Brewnurse tonight and he's bringing me some Apfelwein!!!! Can't wait to try it!!!!

 

[Cheesefood]

1. Cheesefood
2. Rhoobarb

4. FermentEd

Fantastic idea. I'd be down with an over-nighter to Milwaukee for a gathering, or we can get everyone here. Not too many good beer pub-crawling areas in IL though.

Set it up. I'm there.

 

[Ryanh1801]

nope, but me and another guy on here from Dallas are going to try and get a brew day going.

 

[RichBrewer]

I answered yes but as of this minute I've never met anyone in person.
That will all change today or tomorrow when I meet Brewpastor, Brewtopia, clayof2day, Dude, and olllllo at the NHC. :rockin:

 

[Buford]

I met todd_k and Flyin' Lion at the last JRHB meeting.

 

[david_42]

Several people on the site have identified themselves as being members of the clubs I belong to. However, I have not physically met anyone from the site that I didn't know before.

 

[Rhoobarb]

Met Cheesefood, Snakebone, FermentEd, flippindiscs & rdwj and have plans to meet up again on July 14th.

Fantastic idea. I'd be down with an over-nighter to Milwaukee for a gathering, or we can get everyone here. Not too many good beer pub-crawling areas in IL though.

I could probably go for that, depending on when, of course.

 

[WOP31]

Met a one person in my town, he is coming over this weekend to the clubs brewday.
I will be in chicago on the 29-31 if anyone in the area wants to gettogether for a beer

Cheers

 

[98EXL]
