can you add 1 for my friend, or maybe just add an extra 5 - 7 spots for last minute joiners. Rather have extra space if needed.

Wow, well I think I speak for Jillian when I say we'll do what we can but to ask for 7 more spots almost a week after she asked for a last call is a big order to fill.

The Cracker and I are going to check some of these places out so we get a better idea of size and where will be best for a big group of drinking booties.

So... as we're doing reconnaissance we want to know the approximate size of our group and at the one place that needs a reservation we may have to split up if they can't accommodate us. We're going to take the list of people who have thus far RSVP'd. All late joiners can come along to any nonreservation place and at the reservation place we'll figure it out or split up.

Deal? Deal.

Um...no. Sorry, but I was very clear about the fact that I wouldn't be making any more calls to add people.

BillE is giving up his spot (Nooooo!!!!!) but mono loco had asked for a spot first. I'll let you know if something else comes up. There are also places in the immediate vicinity to chill while the group takes the hour long tour. We will also be hitting other spots that more people can join in on without advanced notice.

no worries, was just a thought. Will give my spot to my friend. Sorry haven't been able to keep up with this thread for a while since I was traveling and then work.

See you all in a few weeks

Reservation for 18 is the final tally for the formal Widmer tour.

Plan on being out and about from 10am until 4pm or so. We're also planning on stops at Roots Brewing and at the Green Dragon. The Green Dragon is not a brewery but has a distillery on site as well as a carefully selected tap list that is intended to have beers you won't find anywhere else.

I'm pretty sure this should be everybody, right? There are a couple of maybes on the list, so we may be able to squeeze a few more in. No promises.

If there is someone who wants my spot, I'm happy to give it up for them. Most likely I'll be running around like a headless chook on that Saturday.

There's bound to be alot of hemming and hawing between now and then. We can't guarantee one way or the other so we'll figure it out on the day, ok? If we have the room your friend is welcome to come on the Widmer tour. All other stops do not have a reservation restriction so the more the merrier.

Remember folks- we'll be taking public transport and we will be a large group in a bar so please do everyone, including your sure to be lovely servers, a favor and bring CASH!

Muchas gracias and see ya soon!

I've done the Widmer tour thing and its great especially if you get a chance to speak to one or both of the actual brothers. (Though don't cont on that).

Also the Green Dragon though rather spartan is a real cool place. But I was wondering if any early arrivals were up for a Friday afternoon pub crawl before the usual hostel get together that night?
