Does not seem to be too much interest.

I haven't tried in a long time. I did before, but usually nobody was there when I could spend time hanging around in it. (late at night)

Definitely up for a revival. I do find one of the hard parts is that we all live in different time zones. I was just getting home when people were chatting before bed on the east coast. It seems like people just got busy, and we were missing each other in there, but yeah, we definitely should try to revive it!

It's too bad it can't be a sidebar kind of thing like the mr beer fans one (I know it would take a lot to make that happen, so I'm not trying to say let's do it, just wishing). At the mr beer fans site, it was just always there and often had a lot of good conversations going on (especially on bowling night).

When I've visited the tap room, it was almost always empty or nearly so. One time, I got booted out and when I tried to go back in, it thought I was still there, so it put me in anonymously. Had a humorous conversation when I announced that bpgreen was there and the other person thought I was asking if bpgreen was there. It had a kind of who's on first feel to it.

The taproom was what started this whole thing. Leigh had it setup, and when we left that 'other' site this was in the waiting. I for one would like a comeback, I had many a great conversations in there. Most notably Phil and other Jim. I wouldn't be brewing the beers I brew today without the help I got from them as well as many others. If we want to plan a 'reunion' meetup sometime next week to kind of get the interest back up, I am in.

I keep going in and nothing but spider webs and a cold breeze whistling through the vacant halls of emptiness. The bartender is never there either.
