JNUC Beer Share

Hey @charliwest, the beer swap was an excellent idea. Thanks for starting what should be a new tradition for JNUC! I think we all got to try new things—for me, the Geuze was a very strange experience—but my favorite was the habañero chili beer from Country Boy Brewing. I'm contacting them to see if I can get more.

It was cool to see the JAMF Headquarters, too! Thanks, JAMF, for opening up your office to "the crazy ones" during JNUC 2015.

Sorry that we missed JNUC Beer Share... Ping me next time you are in Chicago - Half Acre Daisy Cutter from me

Definitely was a great event, good to run into an old buddy (nine years, Ben!), and what a great selection to sample from. Pliny the Elder!

Also big thanks to JAMF for hosting, it was a nice change of venue.

Best beer share ever!!! Thanks, everyone.

So the request has came back in to host this event once again for this years JNUC. Since most nights are typically filled with wonderful and applicable mini-events we put this on the Thursday night of JNUC last year, which is the final night of the event.

It shouldn't be an issue to host this community event at our new location in MPLS but I want to figure out some logistics first.

To get things reserved and plans made, should we aim for the same idea this year? Thursday Oct 20th, 2016 from 5pm - 9pm?

Thoughts, objections, what you're planning on bringing?

I know I have some whales i'd be happy to share.

I have flight back to Chicago on Thursday...

I'm down! JAMF usually throws their own sponsored party on Wednesday night, and the staff spend Thursday evening cleaning up the Guthrie. Therefore, Thursday night becomes an after-party opportunity for a lot of attendees.

There are some great Wisconsin beers that are only distributed in Wisconsin--most notably, the offerings from New Glarus brewery. The closest distributor from Minneapolis is Spirit Seller Liquors in Hudson, WI. Or perhaps @mike.paul knows someone in Eau Claire that can smuggle in a few bottles. :-)

@bradtchapman New Glarus (especially Stopped Cow) and 3 Sheeps are the best! I am on vacation in Wisconsin next week close to Sheboygan, looking forward to visit 3 Sheeps brewery are there Hops Haven restaurant

I can't make this years JNUC, so also no bottle share for me :(
Take care of my baby all ;)
Also anyone coming back to EU after the share I would be very open to meeting up and trying anything u bring back from the US :)

I'm game as well. The timing and location at JAMF works well. I'll bring a 2007 La Folie, plus whatever looks interesting in the cellar.

For any Minnesotans going to Hudson, if you've found the Spirit Seller you've likely already driven past the best bottle shop in the city - Historic Casanova Liquor. They also fill growlers of some awesome beers not available in MN.

I'm in as well!

Some people are pushing for moving the share to Tuesday since there isnt as many mini-events this year and a lot of people are leaving town Thursday.

If that works better for people I can easily have the office reserved Tuesday evening then.

And Casanova's is the bees knees.

There is another discussion about this over here as well

Sorry for hijacking the event, I didn't see any mention of it before so I decided to take charge and make an event and discussion.

Thanks for helping me out @mike.paul!

Hey Guys,

If I attend this, would it be possible to ship my beer to JAMF HQ before hand? That way I won't have to pack it on the flight and carry it over. Maybe send it to @mike.paul

@shawnis43 I'm not positive and I'm definitely not a lawyer, but there may be some legal limitations on this depending on where you are shipping from and what method you are using.
