Asheville check-in

[Beer-lord]

I've posted this in the Asheville thread but it's gotten large and many people may overlook it.
I'd like a show of hands for those that are planning on coming to Asheville and what days you will be there so that I can book a few tours. They are filling up fast and I'd like to know by Friday.
Of course, when possible, I will try to accommodate any last minute requests but as many of these are limited in number, I can't make any promises.
Also, much of what we hope to do will be our own 'walking wounded tour' from pub to taproom to small breweries since it appears many areas of the brewing district are almost wall to wall breweries and pubs.
I know some of you had plans to show up sometime and others were not sure.
Here's what I have so far......feel free to update this by adding your name and dates:
Beer-lord 2/5-2/9
Blackduck 2/5-2/9
Inkleg and Misses Ink 2/5-2/9
RedBEERd and Misses 2/5-2/9
Dawg LB Steve and Misses 2/5-2/9

If there are any questions, please ask and whatever we don't know, we'll try to find out. For now, I'm hoping to get us in to the Wicked Weed Funkatorium (I think is' $12 which includes a glass and samples) and Sierra Nevada which is free but lasts 90 minutes and I think you may get some free samples at the tasting room.
There are others we may just walk into and sit down and enjoy as well. We're not looking for too much structure, just some fun and relaxation and getting to know whomever is there.

I'm up to potentially 7 dogs now. So I really can't do it. But I'll send some beer with Dawg, and a picture of me in a kilt in a little frame that you can take and put on all the tables so I can be with you in spirit. You can set a flight in front of it so I can channel the beer from afar. Then you may drink it.

So it is written, so shall it be done!

I guess I'm still going. If I have to drink with those I already know, then I will have to continue to talk about those I don't, of course, while having a beer in hand.

Sounds good to me!

As a semi-final notice, I've got tour dates for the Wicked Weed Funkatorium and Sierra Nevada Brewery booked for those who've already said they were coming. While it may be possible to add bodies, I can't promise it as for some reason, they seem to be busy that time of year or maybe it's because it's a beer Mecca.
Don't let missing a tour stop anyone from showing up to have a good time. There are other things we'll be doing but I will admit, they will include beer!

[Dawg LB Steve]

Absolutely Borgies, even if it is just a day trip for you on Saturday, Sunday or Monday that we are there!!!!

Found out finally I won't be able to make this trip. With the new job comes new responsibilities. All really good I might add. After being in my position for 3 months now my manager has given me more responsibility which includes a new system roll out in late January which will require multiple meetings to discuss what is going well with it and what needs to be revised. Sorry to miss out again!!

[Beer-lord]

I can assure everyone that we are safe folks and clean. No reason to fear us. OK, Jeff does wear his kilt differently than the rest of us but he's harmless.
Sorry you can't make it Rabbit. Understand the job issue. Timing is hard for things like this.

[Inkleg]

Jeff does wear his kilt differently than the rest of us the way it should be worn, but he's harmless.

fifty

and I'm hoping to have company this year!

This sounds like a great time!
