Casa Donde is former warehouse space that has been converted into the
private residence of David Fetter, this month's guest host for this
month's guest event.  One of David's hobbies is brewing.  Your
SIG-beer-west Instigator has enjoyed many a glass of David's fine
brews. David has invited SIG-beer-west to a brewing event. He says:

     Ever wondered how beer comes to be?  Wonder no more!  We'll be
     brewing at Casa Donde <http://casadonde.org/>.  Brewing is not
     required, and beer will be available. 

Everyone is welcome at this event.  We mean it!  Please feel free to
forward this information and to invite friends, co-workers, and others
(all of legal drinking age) who might enjoy lifting a glass with
interesting folks from all over the place.

Can't come this month? Mark your calendar for next month.  (Do it now
before you forget!)  sig-beer-west occurs on the third Saturday of
each month.

Want to suggest a venue?  Suggestions for new places to sip and gab
are always welcome.  Have questions, comments, or other ideas

Instigator's email address is <*the handle*> at <*the handle*> dot
<*org*>.  A subject beginning with "sbw: " will increase the chances
that the Instigator's spam filters don't molest your message.

       folks.  Please do join us.

______________________________________________________________________

sig-beer-west was started in February 2002 when a couple Washington,
D.C. based systems administrators who moved to the San Francisco Bay
area wanted to continue a [3]dc-sage tradition, sig-beer, which is
described in dc-sage web space as:

  SIG-beer, as in "Special Interest Group - Beer" ala ACM, or as in
  "send the BEER signal to that process".

  The original SIG-beer gathering takes place in Washington DC,
  usually on the first Saturday night of the month.
