PDXBrewers Holiday party

The PDXBrewers holiday party was last night, and I think it went quite well. It was my last act as a board member for PDXBrewers, but as last acts go, it was pretty good. I think the new board members have it all in hand and will do a far better job than we did, though I think they should consider the following for next year:

* Rent a room someplace that is open later: Maybe we should go back to Lucky Lab for the party next year, but anyplace that is open later than 9pm would be great. I actually felt like MFC was angry we were there so late.

* No beer judging: No more judging at the party - it was too confusing and people were distracted from other things we were trying to get done at the party, not to mention the fact that we had to vote twice.

* More varied centerpieces: I thought we did a good thing by getting the Unibroue beers for centerpieces, but everybody and their mother brought the same beers, which made it kind of suck

Overall, it turned out OK, and I'm going to go borrow Ron's mill all the time :P
