Ethan's Spring Gathering May 18,19,20

So is anyone driving up through SC on hywy 85? I might or might not have my car drivable by this weekend.

I'll be happy to help out with gas money or something.
 
Well gang, sorry to say it doesn't look like we're going to get to make this one. Had some major stuff come up and we are needed around here. I hope somebody is willing to step up and drink the extra Black & Tan the factory has been making for me. :D

Hey tradewater,

Sorry to hear about the change of plans. We were hoping to meet some of the old-school Beckerheads - you being one of them.

Thanks man, but there will be lots of them there a lot more fun to meet than me. Hey.....wait....who you callin' "old-school"?
 
Soooo, Whats Ethans drink of choice again ? I think someone chimed in a while ago, but I cant find where I wrote it down.

I hope everything is ok Trade, I was looking forward to meeting you, and yours.

He has lots of them. But if you are planning on bringing E something to drink, don't worry about it.

He rarely drinks anything harder than beer, and usually that's Yeungling.

Moose, is there anything else any of us might want to bring for the host? This is my first gathering there so I don't really know what is expected.

Nope, cover yourself and expect to have a ton of fun.

Well that stinks. Put me down for a Saturday arrival then. I was planning on sleeping with trade on Friday night.
 
so, the way it seems to be going, I will not be buying very much steel while at Ethan's. It looks like I'll be driving the truck over, so at 17mpg all my steel money is gonna become gas money LOL

Dangit, Trade, that sucks! I was looking forward to snuggling, I mean TALKING with you...
 
Ok, so I've been brewing my heart out since January and I've assembled a veritable Voltron of Beckers and beer for use at the gathering! If I've been too quiet lately, it was probably in part due to getting this ready, the other part would be old fashioned laziness :D

Left to right: BK-10 paired with Dunkelweizen; Bk-11 Paired with Honey Brown Ale, and Bk-5 wonderfully complimenting an spectacular Irish Red. Just had to share!
 
It’s funny that you posted that because as I type this I am waiting for the next step after adding the bittering hops. This would be my very first attempt at home brewing (German Oktoberfest with a kick) so I may have to pick your brain at the gathering.

And MWTIC; it would take me longer to get to you than it would to get to the gathering. I was thinking that I could swing wide from southwest ATL and pick you up but I don’t think it’s going to happen. Hope things work out for you brother.
 
Good news people; my problem had been solved........for now at least. Lol
