Gixxus Christ! Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 (edited) I guess I'll never learn.... Here it comes again, the meat and greet. For those unaccustomed, it's a casual meeting of members at my place where we socialize, imbibe beverages, eat grilled meats and generally have a good time. As usual the date is not yet set but is targeted for late April-early May. Changes this year: I have recently rediscovered the joy of home brewing and will have 3 varieties of beer on tap. I invite your input on what varieties to brew. Last year the beer brats and burgers were a hit. Hot dogs, however affordable, just didn't get the attention the higher tier meats did, so expect even better food. We had an awesome turnout last year, and I hope for the same this year. If you want to use the garage for any maintenance or repair/upgrade work on your bike, I have a pretty well-appointed, albeit poorly organized shop. Considering a short ride early in the day, I have a decent route in my area I like to ride, takes less than an hour. This is open to discussion as well. Overall I'm looking forward to seeing some old friends again and making new ones at this event, and it is not limited to NEO. If you want to make the trip from wherever you are, you are welcome. Hope to see another great turnout this year. Tentative date is Saturday April 15th. Extended forecast says 65 and partly cloudy.

Hope to see you make it tho. Top left when you quote, to the left of the bold B. Looks like a blank page. Tap it, it clears the stuck quotes. I fixed it, you are welcome. More importantly do we need another barrel of lube or is there enough left over? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxus Christ! Posted January 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 On my phone, if I quote, then for whatever reason I backspace, it puts my cursor in the quote box and there is no way to get out of it other than abort the post and start over. Still plenty of lube in the garage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Click that. It clears everything from the editor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jschaf Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 Most likely I'll be down for this. The last 2 were fun. Thanks for the hospitality Sam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpgasser Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 I never made this when I was actually living in NEO for various reasons...I would like to still come up from Marietta as long as it is not MotoGp weekend (I will be in Austin). Also, not a meat eater, but still love me some Ale...anxious to see how your home brewing is going...my brother did this back when I was in high school, needless to say that I raided his stash often...he took it as a compliment.

dpgasser Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 Also, I request that you play some Clutch! Lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojocho Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 I'll be down as long it's not near April the 22nd. Had to leave early last year due to my daughter's birthday party. I need my sag set if anyone can help with that. New bike needs to get dialed in for my fat ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxus Christ! Posted January 13, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 There will be ale and lager to drink, I have a 3 keg draft system. If there are particular styles people want I have time to work them into my brewing schedule. Tentative plan is to have an amber ale, some sort of lager, probably pilsner, Helles or Dortmund, and a porter or Stout on tap. Open to suggestions. Herbivores and other prey animals are welcome to bring a potato to grill, or there is bountiful grazing available in my dogs' toilet. Clutch will be played. So will Tool and other awesome music. I will also probably play about 1:20 of some really heavy shit until @Isaac's Papa bitches about it being 'angry'. Sag setting can be arranged. I have a lift. Will check the 2017 MotoGP schedule for conflicts. Will also avoid sat the 22nd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimTheAzn Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 I'll be trailering down. Sam, do you have any power hook ups for tire warmers? Also can I reserve some space for my canopy? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily, this is the same weekend. Your brew selection sounds perfect to me...I look forward to trying them out and grazing in your lawn, lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerekClouser Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 I plan on attending as long as I don't have any unforeseen circumstances arise on that date. Thanks as always Sam! I can attest to how much work throwing an event can be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

what Posted January 13, 2017 Report Share Posted January 13, 2017 I may swing up that way, if the weather is nice and I'm not slaving away out of town for work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxus Christ! Posted January 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Finished up the new kegerator tonight. Hopefully by the time this event happens the basement will be partially finished. Plans are to put a bar area and bathroom down there with my brewing equipment. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gixxus Christ! Posted January 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Brewing as I type this in my basement. Built this all electric recirculating system a few months ago. It makes very good beer despite my very sloppy panel wiring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
