    Default NYC Summer Biergarten Herf

    It's official, the NYC SUMMER BIERGARTEN HERF!!!

    Saturday, July 22nd, 2006 at 2:00pm

    at the Bohemian Hall Czech Biergarten

    http://www.bohemianhall.com/home.htm

    Located 24 Ave. and 29th St. in Astoria, NY. (29-19 24th Ave.)

    Come one, come all!!!!

    Sponsors (Thank you Scott1966 and Stogieman):
    General Cigar
    CAO


    This event will be sponsored and there will be plenty of room for all. The biergarten seats up to 1000, so I am not renting the place out, but we will have plenty of places to sit. 12 Dollar pitchers of fine european beers (they have water-aka bud light-too if you insist) and BBQ or Czech cuisine highlight the menu.

    The rain date will be that Sunday, July 23rd, 2006 at 2:00pm.

    I'm in.....
    I'm not big on doing reviews, tobacco doesn't taste like "cocoa" or "nutty" or "mocha" to me, it tastes like freakin' TOBACCO. I know what I like and I really don't care what other people think of other cigars. I've never read a review and said to myself "Wow, that sounds like a cigar I'd like to try!"

    Basically, I'm looking to find out what date might be good for folks. Apparently, they're doing world cup coverage through July 9th, so we should go with all Saturday's after this in July and early August. There are trees in the biergarten, so shade is not a problem in the July and August heat.

    For those who'd be coming from the Northeast, and those who might be in town or want to be in town, let me know what dates would work. Once we get a general consensus, I'll report back with all the official information.

    How does July 22nd sound with the 23rd being the rain date?

    First post edited, the date and time is official, so let's start getting a roll so I can tell the sponsors how many people we'll be expecting.

    *lol* Didn't even knew, that you call a Biergarten in US a Biergarten!
    What kind of beer they serve?

    Btw: today's soccer result: Germany : Costa Rica - 4:2

    A good start for us, isn't it?

    Just an update, we have General Cigar as a confirmed sponsor and CAO with a verbal yes so far!
