    Coming up on 4 months since the last event, which I think I am just getting over the hangover from. So... Is there some interest in having another in mid-late February? Is there interest in reaching out to Ted at Top Hops? I live out in Queens and have considered throwing out the idea of reaching out to Alewife in LIC to ask about hosting. Any interest in this? They have a much larger space and based on the great turnout last time it might be worth considering.(also near LIRR and subway)I just know that I have a lot a great beer to share and would really enjoy seeing old faces again and meeting some new ones.

    Let me just be the first to say, YES. Last time was a blast. I know Franch kinda led the charge and sees Ted at Top hops pretty often, so maybe he can look into that, but I'd be fine with Alewife too. Or anywhere else in town. Let's do it.

    Fuck it I'll go. However, I must warn that I am not particularly sociable and there's a 100% guarantee I will get bombed.

    I'm looking forward to the next one, not having made it to round to. I was talking to Ted at Top Hops a couple weeks ago and he said the next one would be at some point in February.

    Unfortunately my cellar has again gotten clutterred with bottles of beer, and the wife is complaining, again, so what better way to make her happy than this? Had a great time at the last one, definitely looking forward to this one. February? Nice. Def. need bigger backpack this time.

    This is an awful idea...although the idea of selling this to the wife as a great way to unload bottles might work. Count me in...

    Just bring 2 or 3 cools bottles of beer that we can't all easily get in NYC and its surrounding areas. That's all there is to it. Oh and to have a good time and don't be a dick.

    That works well for me I think. The weekend before is also presidents weekend and a lot of folks may be away taking a long weekend.

    Should we start a google doc for Attendees and beer selections?

    Heck, February is so dang short, I could wait until March 2nd so Alex(Beerworld) could make it out. This would give everybody a chance to work their schedules. Can somebody set up a google doc so we can starting putting together a list. Franch, do you wanna check with Ted about top Hops interest and good dates? If he is not interested, I could always reach out to Alewife.
