Hi!

Have been working on some preparations, so hoping to come back with some more information soon (and yes, will also create events!). Bit as it will take a bit more time, revealing some here:

We have also gotten some special prices for hotels:

Riga (Hotell Dodo http://www.dodohotel.com/en/index.html)
twin: 24 EUR/night/person
single: 43 EUR/night/person
including breakfast

Tartu (Hektor Design Hostel http://hektorhostels.com/et/)
six person room: 26/night/person
triple room: 32 EUR/night/person
twin: 35 EUR / night/person
including breakfast

Tallinn (Go Hotel Shnelli http://www.gohotels.ee/)
triple: 32 EUR / night /person
twin: 35 EUR / night / person
including breakast

So we will also have these options available, maybe not the cheapest available but still good value during peak tourist season. Anyhow, planning to set up also some online method for registering for all of this, just been held back by some very busy weeks I need to get through first.

Cheers!

This looks awesome. If I can juggle my work schedule, I just might make it. Riga and Helsinki are very convenient from KIX!

Notice that Suuret Oluet Pienet Panimot in Helsinki is Wed 26.7.2017 – Sat 29.7.2017 if you want to extend your stay in Finland. The best festival to get Finnish micro brews.

Hi!

Little progress: RateBeer events created. I did a separate event for every day of the gathering. As we will be moving between 4 different cities, it might happen that some people are only able to join for one or two days. So if you plan to join the gathering, please mark yourself as an attendee.

Links are here:

2017.07.20 Day 1, Riga

2017.07.21 Day 2, Tartu

2017.07.22 Day 3, Tallinn

2017.07.23 Day 4, Helsinki

Could be. But because we’ll be heading into GBBF season quite soon after RBESG it’s more likely that any extension of the trip will be before RBESG than after. If we get to RBESG at all that is - not 100% certain yet.

offline we’re discussing Vilnius before RBESG with a sidetrip to Belarus. I’ll link you into the discussions if you like


Gene, I just had a look at dates and there’s a very good chance I could do this. I had already planned visiting Belarus, Ukraine & Moldova around this time, so there’s no problem working RBESG into the schedule. Can you let me know your plans. I last visited the Baltics 10 years ago, def keen to get back!

Booked. We’ll do Lithuania 12-18 July, then RBESG, then Belarus 24-28 July. After that I’ll do the beer festival in Helsinki and possibly and extra day or two in Tallinn.
Open to suggestions & meeting folks.
