Qld Ahb Visit To 152 Oxford Micro Sat 12th Aug

[Screwtop]

Some local Homebrewers here on the Sunshine Coast have suggested a day visit to the 152 Oxford Microbrewery. Tidal Pete has paid them a visit previously and found it to his liking. Have a look

The suggestion is that Sunshine Coast Brewers take public transport where possible to catch a train to the City where we would meet up with other Qld Homebrewers. Hopefully Brisbane and Gold Coast brewers can also get together as a group to meet us.

Completely open to suggestions as to as date and also where we should meet and make our way to 152 Oxford.

See the reply from assistant manager Jai Alexander below. Hopefully the day will consist of lunch at 152 followed by a brewery tour and tasting and then for those who wish, settle in for a CBPU and enjoy a few more of their beers before taking public transport home. Simply an informative day of fellowship for the Qld brewing fraternity.

Please reply if you would like to join in. All suggestions gladly considered to make this a great day out for all.

Not wanting to leave any AHB'ers out, lets see if we can maybe offer a bed so that fellow Brewers from the West or North can join us.

My suggestion is for a Sat sometime between July 15 and Aug 26. Apply for an extended leave pass now!


Reply from 152 Oxford:

We can start the tour at 1pm; it only takes approx 45 mins. This includes a tour of the brewery and our head brewer explaining how everything is done.

You will then sample 6 of our beers that we brew here at Oxford, and then may choose your favourite for another sample.

Kind regards

I vaguely remember a visit to the 152 Oxford when I was in Qld last year. A good night but a banging head ache the next day, for which I blame Ross. I didn't make it to the morning sessions of the conference the next day and struggled at the conference dinner that night. Wish I could join you boys for the outing.

Cheers

I'll mention this at the BABB meeting tonight, and direct people to this site for info.

Incidentally, later this year Oxford 152 will be brewing the winning beer from our club's annual competition.

I would love to go. I am busy on all Saturdays until end of July. August is good for me.

The night we had there last year (when GMK was up here) was well attended, and a good night all round, so I'll be in.

Although... I seem to remember seeing a post a couple of months back on here from MercsOwn (??) that Oxford 152 was no longer brewing, as they had been bought out. Don't know if this was, or still is the case ??

Edit: Just found the post from Mercs - http://www.aussiehomebrewer.com/forum/inde...?showtopic=8927

Staying at the Carlton Crest ................. walk to Suncorp Stadium .................... watch the Wallabies flog the Yarpies ................. fit in as many good beers as possible

Any suggestions for good drinking holes in the CBD?

I'm in :beerbang: but August would suit me better.

Please bear in mind that there is more public transport on a Saturday. More trains back to the Coast. Probably more ferrys although you'd have to check the timetables to verify that.
