(11-05-2015, 08:49 PM)Evil Cheese Wrote: So what's the story? Where are we meeting and what time should I shoot for? I don't really know downtown Baltimore all that well so I'm deferring to the locals. I probably won't be able to leave my place until around 7 at the earliest, so in that case I could be there between 8:30 - 9:00.

I suspect, dear Cheese, that the locals are either betrothed, or intoxicated, or both. 

To get things rolling, I suggest a Gal-drop on Interlink Alewife. http://www.alewifebaltimore.com/ It's a Gastropub that seems to get good reviews year-over-year, but Dear Leader never lets us deploy there during Otakon because he wants to "people-watch."

I think you've got my celly info, so we can meet there 8-ish depending on how everyone is rolling. Alternatively, I can scout it myself tomorrow night (I will probs be mad hungry by 6), and if there are more peeps available on Sat or Sun we could meet up then. Or someplace else.

BTW- Fog is mad crazy tonight. Spoooky.

Tomorrow is really the only evening that will work for me this week so I'll still probably try to make it up by 8 unless you decide to call it off. I'll check again in the evening to see what the verdict is before I head out. That restaurant looks like a good choice for beer geekery.

Alewife is always a good choice. I'm down to meet up for dinner tonight or Sunday or both. We just doing BRBu or is my lady invited? Sounds like she'd be welcome on Sun but not tonight.

I'm cool with it either way. I don't mind if she wants to come.

Bah. Got conscripted into a planning meeting for tomorrow, so tonight is off for me.

Sunday there's an employer-sponsored reception that starts at 6:30, so I need to put in an appearance for that. Alternatively, we could do an early bird special from like 4:30 to 6:45, then I could roll into the reception all drunk like.

And yes, At0m, I would be delighted to meet any of your love interests.

She suggests Birroteca, which is a little further out of downtown than Alewife, but either of them is OK with me.

Earlier is better for us because of travel time.

I made a reservation for 6 humans at 430p, but xineo coming means I did my math wrong and need to call in the morning and bump up the headcount to 8 if we include Cheese.

TRIP TO CHICAGO - December 1

I will be in Chicago for one day on December 1 for work. My boss has mandated that I visit a specific location for dinner. Will any Chicago-area BRB'U be in the vicinity?
