Title: Beer Festival
Post by: Chris Craig on March 02, 2013, 09:29:11 PM

So, who has tickets to the festival next Saturday?  I think it'd be a great idea if we made a night out of it.  Any ideas?

Snooty Fox has decent, filling food. I certainly won't be having any booze before the event.

Snooty Fox works for me.

If we're looking to eat first... Lunar Rogue, and a couple other resturants have 15%off with your tickets...

Title: Re: Beer Festival

I just checked... its Delta (purdy's and grill), The schnitzel parlour, and the rogue... I'd be up for the schnitzel place or the rogue (haven't eaten at either, but I hear great things)

The schnitzel place is at Silverwood.  Not really convenient.  I've eaten there before.  It's like a bad frozen dinner.  I don't recommend.  I'm OK with the Rogue, or Snooty, or wherever.  I'm not really concerned with saving $3 on my meal.

I don't recommend.

My wife said the same thing when I mentioned it the other night - although I don't think she's been in some years.

Rogue  is right nearby lets go there. Also, Parlor is not good for me allergywise

Sounds good!

I've made a reservation for 8 people at the Lunar Rogue for 4:30pm Saturday under the name "beer club." If more think they will come, I'll update the reservation.

Sounds good! I may be a little late as by son's birthday party at kingswood is runng until about 430

Title: Re: Beer Festival
Post by: Chris Craig on March 08, 2013, 09:19:02 AM

That's fine.  Looks like we'll be there for a couple of hours.  No need to make a move to the Delta until 6:30.

One last attempt... Anyone on here can't make the festival and my brother will take that ticket off your hands! He said he's willing to pay above purchase price. They seem to be pretty high in demand though.

I might actually be going to the rogue anyway so might see you all there.. And if not see yas at the festival for sure!

Dandy: check out facebook - they were going to do a draw for some VIP tickets they had spare.

Sweet job on the booking Kyle.

If you guys want to stop by after the Festival for a beer, feel free.  My prices are cheaper than the Pub.

Post by: Chris Craig on March 08, 2013, 09:01:24 PM

That's a generous offer Chris.  We'll definitely keep it in mind!

It'll be snug, but I can take 6 people with me from the Rogue to the Delta after dinner.

Title: Re: Beer Festival
Post by: Kyle on March 09, 2013, 02:47:01 PM

I'll take you up on that!!!

Post by: Richard on March 09, 2013, 03:47:32 PM

Ah crap, looks like I'm gonna have to skip the Rogue side of things. I'll meet you at the Delta.

It was interesting being there sober. Had no idea how much slurring of words goes on at a beer fest! :-)
