BBQ April 8th near Amsterdam!

Post by Odin »

Hi there,

We are organizing a BBQ at the iStill Assembly Hall in Woerden, near Amsterdam. The event takes place on April 8th. Homedistillers meeting, but probably some pro's will turn up as well. BBQ, drinks, and good company.

I know it is a heck of a trip for most of you, but please know you are invited.

Regards, Odin.

Okay, so far we have like 10 participants from the Netherlands and Belgium. Some amateurs, some pro. Everyone takes their drinks with them. One member comes with a Oklahoma Joe like smoker, another brings pulled pork, a third brings macerated chicken legs and wings. The mss. and I provide salad and bread.

The BBQ may start at around 3 pm Amsterdam time. We may do a distillation run as well, making some white whiskey at the same time.

Regards, Odin.

That's a shame, Kareltje! We have one big ass smoker for the BBQ! And already 25 participants.

Regards, Odin.

BigBob is more than welcome. Looks like we'll have two smokers, btw. Ah, and all homedistillers are welcome!

Looks like we will hit 30 people for sure.

Well that was an excellent barbecue/get-together! Thanks Odin and all the others. Next time I'll make an even bigger impression by not arriving by tractor :lol:

Shit yeah! It was quite the party, right! I am off to Scotland in a few hours. Will post some pics when back in the Netherlands. 25 distillers having a good time. And only one person threw up. And he wasn't a distiller. :)
