HOMEBREW WELCOME/ENCOURAGED
The Craft Brew Drinkup at Code4lib 2011 is all about sharing and enjoying good beer with fellow conference attendees. The idea is to bring bottles of your favorite beers. For this sort of thing anarchivist usually recommends bringing 22 oz bottles, but 12 oz. is OK if it's strong or really special. While you're not obligated to bring local beers from whereever you're from, participants are definitely encouraged to bring beer that you think is special and might be somewhat hard for others outside your area to find. Sign up below with your name, where you're from, and list a few brews or bottles you're thinking about (but not necessarily committing to) bringing along. You can also request that people bring specific beer if you so desire, but don't necessarily expect that your wishes will be granted.
| Name | Location | Brews or Breweries I might bring | Requests |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mark Matienzo | New Haven CT/Brooklyn NY | Pretty Things (1901 KK and Babayaga); Brooklyn Brewery Local 2, Berkshire Brewing Company Coffeehouse Porter (all purchased already) | Imperial porters/stouts; really funky-/Brett-tasting beers. GOOD lager or kölsch. |
| Edward Corrado | Binghamton NY | Something from one or more local microbreweries | smokey beer |
| Mike Giarlo | Pennsyltucky | Either local PA stuff (Otto's, Elk Creek, Victory, Tröegs, Stoudts, Weyerbacher) or Dogfish Head or both | Sour beers, barleywines, malty beers, and beers that make you go "Hmmmm..." |
| Declan Fleming | San Diego | Green Flash, Alesmith, Lost Abbey | Stouts, sours, not of that fizzy yellow ick, not too many hops |
| Jason Stirnaman | Kansas City | Boulevard Smokestack something or other - Imperial Stout if available | Stouts, lagers, no hoppy or spicy ales |
| Ryan Eby | Lansing/Ann Arbor, MI | Jolly Pumpkin, Founders, others by request (below). Driving so can do growlers. | Dark or Hoppy |
| Julie Hardesty | Bloomington, IN | Growler of Java Porter or Ruby Bloom Amber from Bloomington Brewing Co. (depends on what they're making). You can give it a try before you make the trek to Lennie's. | Going for stout and/or flavor |
| Esmé Cowles | Gainesville, FL | Cigar City or homebrew scotch ale. | Anything malty and/or aromatic. French Broad Wee Heavy-er (or -est) if anybody's coming up from Asheville. |

| Adam Wead | Cleveland | Great Lakes Brewery -- their porter is tops. Folks also go nuts for their Christmas Ale. | I like anything... but I'm a sucker for a good oud bruin |

| Andrea Schurr | Chattanooga, TN | Highland Oatmeal Porter and Terrapin IPA - would have rather brought a growler from my favorite Chattanooga brew pub but afraid they wouldn't let my luggage on the plane | Anything. Really. Except Lagers. |
