Interest in a vacation/bottle share on Lake Superior?

[MarcatGSB1]

****... these make it tempting enough... but then I dont trust my car to make it up there even in good weather

I have six more 1/6th barrels of Matilda Lamb, so let me know when you're coming, and I will put it on.
I'll let you know how my Mitten/BCBS Mocktails go...will take pics.

As far as the get together goes, I've been busy, but have been thinking about it.

One possibility is to do it next summer, 2015. With that, I could book the entire hotel whenever we wanted, and get some better organization moving forward. Like I said there are quite a bit of rentals in our small town, and could realistically rent the entire town and burn this bitch down.

Assuming I'm still alive a year from now:

IN.

speaking of alive
MarcatGSB you still alive or did that snow storm kill ya?

 

[MarcatGSB1]

Ahh we made it. Wasn't as bad as called for, I think we got about 13 inches or so.
Correction: They are saying 17 inches over the two days, putting us at 314.50. Half inch more than last years total. I figure once the lake thaws we'll get one or two more lake effect storms. We'll be close to 340 when it's said and done, no doubt.

I have family in Musing and we usually go for a visit every summer, in late July/early August. I'm not sure I could make a specific event, but I wouldn't mind a drive over there and we can spend the night and split some beers.

I'm pushing this off until Summer 2015. Will come up with some dates soon and post here. I'd like to get the entire hotel filled with TalkBeer friends and think it's completely doable.

Side note:
This Sunday, Founder's is coming back to the Keweenaw and gonna blow it up.
KBS on tap, $5 8 oz. pour
Founder's Kentucky Brunch $25:
One piece of Pork Belly French toast with maple/bourbon glaze
All Day IPA Cheese soup
1/2 Smoked Cornish Game Hen served on sweet potato apple bacon hash
Kentucky Breakfast Stout Pecan Pie
8 oz. pour of KBS

MarcatGSB your place is getting some national press in one of my favorite mags, Outside.
I couldn't find a link to it online but can take a pic of the actual article if you want?

Yeah I heard we were mentioned in Outside magazine...****'s about to blow up, we need to plan this whale slaying party soon!

with that said, I was thinking Memorial Day weekend, 2015...how does that sound to everyone? Memorial Day monday is the first weekday we are open (weekends prior), so I'm thinking we do the bottle share in the dining room Thursday, and figured the people travelling from around the Midwest get that extra Monday anyways.

Thought's concerns? If I get 5 or 6 rooms booked with TBer's, I'm willing to commit to a Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday stay, or something of the likes, I'll block the whole hotel off and we can do this bitch right.

Incredible list. Do you get these filled as they are on tap and keep them for events like this? Or is it just one bulk order? I'm in Kalamazoo and if I didn't have family/plans, I'd be there in a heartbeat.
