Next Galway Beers

Ok so start namin places and dates lets get the ball rolling

i say Roisin's or Blue Note as a start then wherever.

date mnah within the month.

whats the story with you students? have you any exams or is RAG week gonna mess everything?

plonk

How about the bier house, Sallys and An tobar

Robbo

These things always end up in the Blue Note. Nothing particularly wrong with the place but I'm a bit bored of it. The Roisin is far too cramped and there's bugger all chance of seating in there. Moreover, it has been decided by committee that "your haircut must be at least this 'indie rock' to enter" on most nights.

Massimo? Somewhere really odd like PJ Flahertys in Lower Salthill? Salthill in general?

Fey!

I know I'm new here, but have you considered The Bal in Salthill - it's supposed to be lovely since it was done up. Then you have PJ O'Flahertys and Wards on the way into town, Massimo, Roisins, then over the bridge to An Tobar and possibly Blu.

MrJones

The Bal? is this a pub?

Fey!

TerrorFirmer

I would like to attend this event for the first time. 23rd is prefered not sure about 24th yet.

fozzle

I work most Thursday and Friday nights in a pub, so honestly, that's the last place I want to be if I've a night off. How about having it earlier in the week when we've more thyan a snowflake's chance in hell of getting seats anywhere in town?

Acutally thats quite true, it could be very busy with no seats and nobody will be able to hear anything.Perhaps a sunday or monday instead then?

timeout

Well is this going to be a thing where we drink 8/9 till 3/4 in the morning or is it meet at 7/8 drink till 11/12? I do get up at 7:30 but don't have to be at work till 9:30

always seeing the glass half full.:)

nobodythere

This is a time when it's better to have the glass empty

God I love bad puns

danniemcq

a pessimist sees the glass as half empty,
an optimist sees it as half full,
an engineer says it's twice the size it should be.

Redhairedguy

Balls to that!

Any firm decision upon date at the mo... poll is quite close.

po0k

get more people to vote.

silverlining

Ah great, now it's 50/50. thanks syxpak.

Tar.Aldarion

I voted for both, just to keep it that way.
Heard the story about you saying hi to the randomer you thought was me silverlining :v:

silverlining

I know, I'm an eejit. But I was very drunk the night I met ye all so that's my lame excuse and I think it was better to risk looking stupid than to risk being impolite....but then there was that weird pm I sent (oops).

as for the beers, it's looking like friday morning is a good compromise for both sides...Boards (champagne) Breakfast anyone?
