Mikkeller's as possible venue #9

Closed lakenen closed 10 years ago

lakenen commented 10 years ago

May I suggest a different venue for next month's beerjs? Mikkeller's is a pretty awesome place with terrific beer and a nice downstairs area that is relatively quiet. Bender's is good, but is very dark and loud, which does not facilitate conversation very well. Also, it's nice to mix it up every once in a while!

+1. Definitely in favor of mixing it up. I've never been there and curious how it would work for a group our size (30+), so we could try a beer.min.js some random night. How about Thursday the 23rd?

lakenen commented 10 years ago

Their downstairs room could hold a good 20-something people probably (at least). Could also spill upstairs, but the lower level is nicer for conversations IMO. I believe it opens at 6pm most days.

terinjokes commented 10 years ago

At least from my POV, we already split into two-ish groups at Benders, so overflowing isn't terrible. I agree with @lakenen, Mikkeller's is much better for conversation.

derek commented 10 years ago

Good tip. Thanks. If it opens at 6pm, maybe we could bump up the start time a bit before it fills up (if capacity/noise is an issue there). In any case, I'll check it out in person this week.

terinjokes commented 10 years ago

I'm not going to reject a beer.min.js if you want to meet up sometime this week.

samshull commented 10 years ago

Yes, do a beer.min.js on the 23rd and I'll join you. It's right around the corner from Zendesk.

twolfson commented 10 years ago

Is the beer.min.js officially on? It sounded like speculatively yes but I would like a definitive yes/no.

derek commented 10 years ago

Definitely on. I'll post the event tomorrow. Short notice, but considering the name...

derek commented 10 years ago

Announced, http://www.meetup.com/beerjs/events/161954312/.

Should we head to the downstairs level? Or just look for folks on the main level?

lakenen commented 10 years ago

A couple of us are downstairs. There is some kind of company party going on so it's more crowded than I expected :(

@derek: what was your feedback on this for possible implementation in March?

derek commented 10 years ago

Definitely doing Mikkeller's for March. Seemed like a great place once the happy hour work crowd disappeared.

derek commented 10 years ago

Experimenting with Beer.js twice a month instead of just once, so the first Tuesday will continue to be at Bender's, and the 3rd Tuesday will be at Mikkeller's. Next one is Feb 18th. http://www.meetup.com/beerjs/events/164972372/
