A busy weekend!!!!

On Friday we held our beer tasting and tapas night for the brewery.

With the evening starting at six we had been preparing all week and were all set for people to arrive.

By half six there were almost 30 guests enjoying the beer and food. We had labelled 100 beer bottles for people to try and by 7pm over half had been drunk. But the reserve bottles came out and there was plenty beer to go around.

A photographer from the local paper turned up to get some photos and everyone was having a great time. All together there were over 50 people at the event and the beer went down well getting good ratings from those drinking it. Dryfe Blonde number two, 5%, was the favourite.

There was some good interest from the locals in shares and we have more names on the list. There is definitely a buzz around the prospect of a local brewery.

Let’s hope our next event in Lockerbie in the New Year goes just as well!

Saturday night we all went out for our staff meal at The Balmoral Hotel.

It was a lovely meal for starters myself, Jessica and Lindsey had Breaded Brie wedges with red currant jelly and small salad garnish, Alannah had leek and potato soup and Michael had prawn cocktail Tom decided he just wanted a main.

Tom had Scampi and Chips, Alannah had beef brisket, Lindsey had Fish and Chips and myself, Jessica and Michael had Ribeye Steak one with stilton sauce and the other 2 peppercorn sauce.

The drinks were flowing and all discussing how well Friday night went and don’t think it could have gone any better.

There was a couple of puddings consumed also.

We then left and went to The Stag Hotel for some Karaoke which was a lot of fun.

We do enjoy our staff get togethers.
