I was wondering this myself...checked this thread to see if the deal was still on or not what with lots of folks still off site and unable (at this point) to get in...

Not my call to make but worth consideration?

Let's not make any hasty decisions just yet! Captain John and I are about 90nm south of Osh right now at 3CK (Crystal Lake, IL) trying to make it to Osh today, but also enjoying our dry hotel room! I have other comitted plans for Tuesday, but hey, I'm sure Jerry wouldn't mind a group of beer drinkers the have an informal gathering on Tuesday.

Default Be discrete

We're camping in Scholler and i just rode bike over to be sure i could get in later for tasting - no problem at gate by the HB pavillion, EXCEPT guard winced at mention of beer and said he didnt want to know anything about it. So will be very discrete when i go back with the goods

Default My pireps about about beer

Went to the gate by control tower. No problem getting in with weekly wristband. But sign says no coolers or alcohol. Another gate attendant said there are 5000 rules for entering, she follows 4999 of them. Gate by hbc pavilion has no sign prohibiting alcohol. So i am chilling my beers now at camp sholler and will bike in later to hbc gate. Sorry i couldn't find pabst blue ribbon on sale so had to bring the good stuff from california.

Default Beer !! ?? !!

Wait! Can?t we drink beer today AND Tuesday?

As for the gate guard. They don?t allow day visitors bringing in alcohol.
?I am camping at my aircraft and restocking my food and drink? Works fine.

Default Postpone?

It doesn't look like there is much chance of enough people to make it into Osh today in the next 2.5 hours to pull off the beer tasting. Let's postpone to either Tuesday or Wednesday?

In other news, the Captain and I have been fully taking advantage of being stranded in towns with great beer scenes!

Are we on, or postponing? Anxiously awaiting the news.

I?m in, assuming we can all get to OSH by then.
Mike, since you are in N IL, you may be able to find some Zombie Dust from 3 Floyd?s Brewing in nearby IN, good stuff. As a matter of fact I am drinking one right now in my Oshkosh 2018 mug.
