BVC - Northern Regional Brew-Day?

[OxladeMac@aol.com]

Just returning from Kingdom A&S, I'm really pumped up about brewing.  For a 
while there, I had kind of slacked off.  (Those of you who know me will find 
that statement, er, rather amusing:)  Anyway one of the things the South has, 
especially the Bryn Gwlad area, is an active brewing community.  I don't know 
about you, but I really wish I had other brewers around.  (It's much easier 
to figure out what you're doing wrong if you combine experience with other 
brewers.  They may have already figured out the answers to your 
questions/problems.)

I was wondering, on my LONG car ride home, if there would be any interest in 
some sort of Northern Regional brewing brewers guild.  We could make some 
stuff, have a mass tasting session, shoot the bull, ect...  I figured we 
could pick an unoccupied weekend (snicker, what a funny thought) and have a 
get-together.   I know Thanksgiving weekend, weekends in December, and the 
first couple weekends in January always seem to be rather light on my 
eventing schedule.  Any interest out there?  Any suggestions on what to do to 
make it attractive/feasible?

Another thing, I have no idea how big the body of brewers in the Northern 
Region is.  I know I've met several of you, but there is always someone 
displaying at XYZ event that I've never heard of, and others that brew but 
don't display.  I'd like to take a census poll of Northern region brewers.  
If you would, please reply with the names, interests (beer, mead, ect..), and 
home groups of all the NR brewers you know, regardless of thier activity 
level.

Thanks
