Many Beers Meet up - Choose a date in November

John Mason

All the other forums seem to be having beer meet ups

are we actually going to get our finger out and organise one or is it just far to much effort?

Tom Dunne

But..... we already have a bar.....and beer.......and we meet up.


Real World Beer(tm) is preferable to the variety we server in Yore Ma's, so I am up for it.

Have your people call my people.

Pub? beer? just say when and where

well, can we pick a date, and then someone can organise it

Right, given the time of year, with Christmas parties soon approaching, I assume it would suit better to have it in November? What say you?

Also, would I be correct in saying a Friday night, city center would suit most people (by city, I mean of course, Dublin city, with apologies for those, erm, not near Dublin. You know who you are, Brother Hagar)?

Early evening would get my vote as I work in the city centre and if it was too late I would be pissed by the time ye all got here, what about Friday 16th ? Will be out of the country the previous weekend

*checks calendar*

16th of November is good for me. I'll be back working in the city center by then in my new job.

IB stick a poll on this thing to see what date suits the most.

Edit: and maybe a temporary sticky Tom

I'm off that week (going to Madrid, WooHoo!), but I'll be back in time and have no current plans for the rest of the week so I'm a definite maybe.

I'd go if it was held in Cork. I am far to lazy to go up to Dublin for a pints.

i dont know if there is a need for a poll, is there slo, the only date suggested is the 16th november and everyone seems happy with this.......

we might need some suggestions for the venue though, i was thinking maybe o'neills on pearse street or the porterhouse on nassau street?

or any other suggestions?

Where exactly is O'Neills on Pease Street? My new job is on Pearse Street, so that sounds like a plan.

Though, I am of course willing to travel.

Long stone ? For two reasons, there is an upstairs section that I think can be reserved, and I can get there from work in less than a minute , although O'Neills and the Porterhouse work as well.

Ok, I'm embarrassed to ask again, where's the Long Stone?

I doubt there would be enough people to warrant us reserving a section, would there?

Doh!

Yeah, got it. And they do platters! A personal favourite on a Friday night after work.

Damn. I have a christening on Saturday 17th. Getting from Dublin to Donegal in time with a slight hangover could be a problem.

So, I'm out.

Well, I'm personally very flexible with dates, so it could be another weekend.

Methinks a poll is in order.

Ah, the longstone. A favourite of the Beering Boardsies. I may pop in for a beverage and a platter.

just a word on the upstairs in the long stone, they will let you reserve the area but often don't open the upstairs bar until 9. so you have a nice area upstairs but no bar :eek:

I'm definitely on for this. Would be pretty cool to meet the brethren that has developed here over the past few months for real. We could even switch to strike team mode after the pub and leave a trail of destruction behind us!! Anybody wanna offer Uncle DJ a place to blackout??
