BeerBorg

Hi all - until whatever pops up to be the MUG of the Borg, just wanted to see if anyone is around these two areas. Next weekend I will be in Louisville, KY for SWMBO Ironman Triathlon. She and her friends can't really partake until after the race so I will be solo a lot. Also - first week in September I will be in Atlanta for ProgPowerUSA Metal Festival (music, beer, and now one of my brothers and nephews is there working on rasslin' career) probably Wed - Sunday.

Holler if you are in the area and maybe we can meet up for a bevvy
cheers
jeff

i'd like to meet up when your down Atlanta way.

That would be awesome Jim. I think Inkleg is down that way as well, is he here yet? I think we end up close to the Arts Center MARTA stop each year, as the venue is Center Stage and Vinyl. Our old hotel (one stop up) was right next to Max Lager's. Still havent made it to Sweetwater for a tour but would like to if I can pull it off.

Getting in Wednesday this year instead of earlier (we used to do the whole week of the fest), probably skip wednesday night shows, hit thursday night and then all day friday and saturday Good thing about the location and the fest is that it allows time to pop out for food and better drink than available there

There is a little pizza place right next to Center Stage that I believe serves their own brew, have to remember what the name is.

Cheers
jeff

yeah inkleg's here and lives east of atlanta near stone mountian. i think there is or was a couple others on the MrB site near to atlanta but don't know if they all made the switch

Hey Jeff, just saw this. From what I read looks like Wednesday night or Sunday may work better for you. Can't say, but Sunday may be better for Jim as he is 2 hours away.
We can try and hash it out in this thread and I'll PM you my #. Hope we can work something out.

i'm gumby y'all. that's 2 hours plus don't know atlanta worth a crap time

The Ironman goes right up and down my street (3rd St.) a couple times as a part of the run so I always sit out on my porch and have a homebrew watching all the people run by. Seeing as I am only 19 I can't go out and have a beer, but if you want to stop by and have a beer my Dad said you are more than welcome! I have a nice witbier kegged. And I have a ton of respect for all of the athletes that do this race, its an incredible feat!

that sucks yankfan9. it was legal when i was 19... of course beer hadn't been invented yet

That stops you? IN was 21 when I grew up, but I started buying in the stores when I was 14 and drinking my arse off. I did look old for my age way back then. Now, I just look/feel old.

FiT they card everybody down here, i even get carded to buy a pack of cigarettes. (guess i look younger than i feel)

I would go out and have a beer or two if I could but sadly I don't look 21, and yes they would card me in an instant! Heck I turn 20 next month.. Not too much longer to wait right In the meantime I will continue making my own beer, and enjoying every second of it and drinking the craft beer that my dad brings home

seriously though, i don't work, disabled. just say when and where, i'll be there.
