I’m thinking about entering a proposal. Belgium and Netherlands. Border area. Not sure yet though, because I’m still considering how much time I actually have for this, and because Netherlands/Belgium will for sure be more expensive than the last rbesg.

Brings up the 1st question: would there be some interest in such a visit?
If yes, I’ll work out a proposal.


I think there are enough rateberians in the Low Countries to get this organised. You can count on me for a start.

Thanks! If there are others in NL/B who want to help out feel free to bm me, many hands make light work ;)

Will try to have a proposal ready by Friday, is that early enough?


Yes, ít is :)

Yes - presuming I’m free on the said weekend I’ll deal myself in also for BE/NL.



Is there a usual month for the RBESG?

I only know last year it was in July.

Never been to one before folks, but I'm happy to throw my name into the hat to help get a Dublin gathering sorted if the demand is there! That said, I'd certainly fancy a night or two away in Belgium or the Netherlands if it's happening there!

Just read past Gazza's post and realised that Dublin ain't high on the list (fair enough I'd say!) Any excuse for me to hit up Belgium is great though!

Not sure about what this entails (never been to one) but appears some kind of brewery/tour/bar/tasting mix-up organized type of stuff. Partially willing to help on a BE/NL thing, not 100 % sure since I am not entirely certain what it is that we are talking about.

You can see here http://www.ratebeer.com/event/17175/rbesg-2012/ how it was organized last year (Vienna, Bratislava). It’s all about beer (how surprising ), One afternoon - evening was dedicated to Grand tasting other 2,5 days we visited brewpubs in both cities.

Last year was great fun so I really hope I can make it again this year!

Have we any progress here? As I remember, there was BE/NL and very shy Dublin nomination . No more suggestions from people willing organize RBESG?

I’ll be in Leuven for most of August and September, so if it’s then, count me in!
