Sat November 27 at 5:00 PM, Bridgeport Brewpub
1313 NW Marshall St, Portland, OR, USA (Map & Directions)
Saturday, November 27th.
Who's in?
Not sure where, or what time.
One suggestion from fiercekitten is The Leaky Roof, but space is apparently very limited.

A lot of the time, the weekend after Thanksgiving, I end up getting roped into stuff with parts of the extended family I didn't see on the actual holiday. So I might have to do that. I'll try to keep the date open, though.
And yeah, as usual, I'll go anywhere.

As long as the place has, y'know, beer, I'm good...
So, in other words, Tao of Tea is out?
Anyway, I'm always up for the Green Dragon. I also thought the Bridgeport Brewpub might be a good option.

More of a coffee man, m'self. More to the point, I heartily second Bridgeport Brewpub. I've been in there once, and it seemed to be a pleasant, roomy, laid-back place.

One more more piece of info for your consideration: The Leaky Roof claims to have "the largest selection of Irish Whiskey available in Portland."

Seeing as how there was only one enthusiastic response concerning location, and that response was for the Bridgeport Brewpub, I took the liberty of making it the official location of meetup 11.(who's counting these things?).
Perhaps the Leaky Roof can be considered for a future event.

Uh, yeah, looks like I'll be in for this too.
The Leaky Roof is great, but it is teeny tiny, and we would basically take over the place. Not that that's a bad thing mind you, but it is a consideration.

God damn it. I have been eager to meet you all since before I moved here six months ago and I have had an obligation every meetup. One day.

So as it turns out, I totally won't be able to make it to the Bridgeport by 5, but am hoping you nerds will still be there by 8 or so. Sound likely? It fucking better, fuckfaces.

Can't make it for five, but I'm aiming to be there by six-thirty or so.

I think I'll give this a shot, but I work across the river until 8:00, and will be bussing it over, so at the very least it'll be me & dersins cussing everybody out, apparently.

I think someone just volunteered to plan the next one....am I right?
Anyway, as always, the start time is merely a suggestion. Show up whenever you $%&@*! please.

Not that I'm a stickler for starting times or anything, but...
(Kidding. I'll probably be there close to 5, but I'm betting things won't really get rolling until 8 or so anyway. That's usually how it works out.)

Well, I'll be there around 6-ish. I'll definitely be there until after 8, if only to see fucking Dersin's fucking fuckface.

You are on Nickthetourist! However, my PDXnewbishness might get in the way and we will all be meeting in the parking lot behind an Arby's.

For some reason I thought this was at 8. On my way.

Yeah, so I couldn't make this one after all (obviously, because I'm not there). I hope you guys are having a good time without me. Difficult, I know, but I have faith in you. I'll see you all at the next one.

1) I shouldn't drink on a very, very empty stomach.
2) Has anyone seen my phone?
3) I gave our waitress some money before my abrupt disappearance, hopefully she got the right table, but she seemed a little confused, so if you got billed for an extra hop czar, tell me who i owe a beer to (hope you like milwaukee's best!).. I should have just left money on the table, in retrospect, but... refer to item #1.

I don't think you stiffed anyone, so that's one less point of day-after misery to contend with.
