RB European Summer Gathering 2023 - Zagreb, Croatia - July 13-16

So, yeah.

This can finally be doable this year. The town itself with the local breweries should be interesting / fun enough for people who haven’t visited the country, though we may decide to dedicate the Saturday to Ljubljana, Slovenia. Tagging @hrabren and @ogivlado so that they start getting responses for this.

Extremely early itinerary idea:
-early bird mini pub-crawl on the Thursday 13.7. - one or two places that are tricky to integrate on Friday and Saturday most likely.
-Friday 14.7. from early morning to late in the evening - shops/taprooms and brewpubs, potentially another brewery visit (Medvedgrad potentially, with lunch in their nearby taproom - Pivnica Medvedgrad Samoborska, and dinner in Mlinarica, depending on how many people arrive).
-Saturday 15.7. - visit to Nova Runda in Zabok, a town not far from Zagreb - it’s their birthday, and there will be an event there! :smiley:
-Sunday 16.7 - grand tasting - maybe at The Garden Brewery (alternatively, Mlinarica) - fairly sure they would have the space, food options and extra ticks.

a) who would be interested in a gathering there?

b) please suggest the dates to avoid if you’re very interested in this - if we get confirmations of good fests / events we can integrate, we will offer concrete dates. It’s early days yet.

Definitely interested. Last week of July and most of August I’ll be on holiday with the family, so those dates are not an option for me.

I would love to give this a try. I’ll let others suggest dates then see if I can fit in.

Definitely interested in! IMO June/July bad, August/September better. Any way I can always try to skip Friday work day and be in Zagreb Fri-Sun.

How do you travel from Zagreb to Ljubljana? Any issues with passports?

Croatia is Schengen, so there should be 0 issues between Zagreb and Ljubljana unless someone decides to play dumb about that (as certain countries do). Any EU ID card should be enough anyway between the two - the rest depends on where you’re traveling from.

In the unlikely case that it will take place on the first weekend of June I’ll attend - I’ll be in Zagreb anyway.

Interested. July probably better for me. I will be away for 2.5 weeks in August, exact timing TBD (probably early/middle of the month, though).

Really want to take part (heard rumors of it being planned some time ago), but because I will very likely have US trip this year (that I didn’t originally plan), it’s likely that I have to skip this one… But maybe if the dates are ok, and cheap tickets are available I can still make it…

We might even need your assistance for some things in some situations. :smiley: Should you be there and have the time ofc.

Of course, I’d be glad to help in any way I can.

Any movement on this yet @Marko?

Hope to have a concrete date by the end of the month, but damn busy here.
