    I've taken part in a bottle share a Toronado before, as long as the staff opened everything it was fine. We also bought dinner and beers and shared with them.

    Also, anyone know of anything exciting beer related happening this Saturday? The wife and daughter are out of town so hoping to go to somewhere I cant normally go or attend an event of some sort I would normally skip :slight_smile:

    Fremont would be apply to host after Fathers Day weekend. We'd do it at our Ballard brewery and it would be kind of private because it's not a retail location.

    We do a brewery bottle share at least once a month and damage is done to bottles and attendees but it's a good time.

    I like that idea! Thank you Tex! Does the 24th of June work for everyone? Let's make it happen.

    My opinion is: set a date, set a location, and it either works for folks, or it don't. We seem to have both, lets roll with it!

    Couldn't agree more. Small organizing note: we will need a head count so we can prepare a space and I would prefer a smaller "BA only" crowd so we can actually hang and talk which means not posting to social media, etc..let's keep this cool and kind of in the family...I really don't want to host 100 people...that's more like work.

    We can figure out a way to get RSVPs via a web link if this is a go.

    I'll be in Morocco drinking crappy local lagers and the 32 oz of good beer for my brother in law that I'm legally allowed to bring into the country. Have fun!

    Will double check schedule, but I'm in! Will do a deep cellar dive and see what I can come up with.

    I've been sitting on the sidelines of the community for a while but would love to attend and meet some of my favorite locals. I can make it if there is space.

    I'm in. Who wants to run the spreadsheet? If some computer geek wants to great. My only qualification is I have a lot of time on my hands and I think I did a fairly decent job the first time.

    Tentative yes for me. Got a Silver City chardonnay barrel aged something rattling around and something else to share.
