While I appreciate my recent (ahem) victory in the Stout class may have led you to making assumptions, what in fuck's name makes you think I know enough about 'stouts and porters' to talk about them? I best get into the books....

My understanding is that Steve W had agreed to do the talk on Durden Park. Perhaps steve can confirm? Matt asked me to put Mike's name down for the stout talk. I'm happy to amend the minutes if this isn't the case. I'm not sure who the third person is?

cheers

OK ta I have amended the minutes accordingly with nothing yet confirmed in October. Still open for you mike if you want to do stout and porter talk then, otherwise we can agree content in September. Is that OK?

I think the fact that you are also imminently taking the BJCP exam may have had something to do with it....

Perhaps there is another Mike?

I am happy to speak on any and every topic given the opportunity and this will be no exception, I hope you are prepared for an amateurish discussion about dark beers! I will also attempt to make a low gravity dark 'un for your pleasure. Is it only you (Steve C), Grundy, and I bringing pale-and-goldings efforts in September?
Long live SHA(T)!

I think so Mike, so few had brewed the comparison beer that it was not worth building a whole meeting around it. We can still compare the two.

I don't recall how the jump was made to you doing a talk on stouts, but you had already offered to lead the meeting :)

I will be bringing my pale goldings effort if I haven't made a mess of it.
