NHC 2010 in... - Page 3 - HomeBrewChatter.com Home Brew Forum

tfries · 06-26-2009, 03:26 AM

My wife, two others from our club and I drove to NHC from Eugene with 8 kegs in the back of my Explorer. Did not do a club booth, but did do a shift at the hospitality suite. All of our beers went over well.

I will be going to 2010 with probably one other from our club. My wife is going to be doing something else that weekend.

Maybe 2011 will be a bit closer.

You could consider having your family vacation at my cottage- and incorporate the NHC into it. Including a Mall of America trip (Uggh).

The offer of my cottage still stands whenever you'd like.

I know it does and I appreciate that. The 11-12 hour drive is the only thing holding us back.

What's so hard about that? Fire up the cruiser at 6am, and arrive in time for supper..

Now 30 hours of airplanes and airports, that's a bit more of a hassle...not to mention a couple of grand for tickets.

Pete - you fly in and you can crash in my room for free - No one who travels for 30 hours should have to pay for a hotel to drink Beer!

I think we need to come up with a shirt for all the HBC members who plan on attending next year. An airlock sniffer patch would be nice too for putting on my brew club shirt.
Just thinking out loud.

I like that idea, but knowing me, I'd forget to bring it. This year I brought almost every beer shirt I have but forgot to bring our club shirt. I got razzed for that.
