Carolina Beer Temple
131 Matthews Station St #1C, Matthews, NC 28105
CBT is NOT a restaurant, although they do sell some prepackaged sandwiches from a local restaurant, and they DO allow outside carryout food to be eaten onsite. Check out the FOOD tab on their website for info. CBT is a retail craft beer (and cider) shop with a bar. Inside and outside seating is available.
We can talk about options for July at the meeting.
The below idea has gotten a good response, so let's go with it for now:
Odd months = Saturday in Charlotte near uptown
Even months = Sunday in South or East Charlotte/Matthews area
Are weekends still the preferred days for most of you?
What about the 3pm time?
Is there anybody who would rather host at their place than meet at a restaurant?
Having said all that, I know how the summer months get with vacations and such, so I'm thinking about some options for July already. Maybe a midweek lunch or after work thing in uptown AND an evening near Matthews? Shaun @angerhater has offered his place in the past, and I think Dave @roadstr6 has, too, so maybe those guys can chime in if the timing is right (as can anybody else that might want to host) for an evening out there. Grill up some meat and bring some sides?
We've added so many members from the Union County side over the last year that it just makes sense to me to start spreading out the meeting locations. And we all know the nightmare of trying to get from one side to the other during the week.
Post up your thoughts on this or PM/call/email me.
For those who have read this far...
...would you rather we all cruise up to the 40/77 or 40/321 area on the 26th to meet Johnny's @GLTHFJ60 Hurricane Creek contingent on their way back to RDU? This would, of course, require those folks to be willing and on a schedule. And I'd have to drive up there to scout an outdoor location since they'll all stink.
