PG Summer Party Saturday 8/31!!

Aloha!

Chef Malahini Ian here to tell you all about our big time luau plans!

This year our theme is a Hawaiian style luau and we plan to take it to the max bruddah!

The party will be happening on August 31, 2024 at Dean Sussman’s little grass shack in the Pacific Palisades.  The address is 1310 Amalfi Drive, Pacific Palisades CA.

The party will start around 2 PM and continue on until late evening.  The party is free for all Pacific Gravity members and their first guest; additional guests may attend for a small fee of $10.  Kids are still free.

Deans house has a large yard and a pool so all attendees are encouraged to bring a lawn chair and swim trunks (and towel) if they plan on going for a swim.

The food will be as traditional style luau food as your haole chef can make it using mainland cooking techniques.  For some strange reason Dean did not want us to dig a traditional imu (luau oven) in his beautiful lawn.  Can’t really blame him for that one.

So I will be making Kalua pig, teriyaki beef, huli huli chicken, lomi lomi salmon and other traditional style foods.  Because our parties are pot luck style also, you are encouraged to bring your favorite party dish, Hawaiian style or not, and we will add it to the feast.  We will have a pupu table (appetizers) and dessert table afterwards if you want to bring something in those categories.

In keeping with our theme our beverage competition this year will be tropical fruits, any beverage be it soda, beer, juice or alcoholic drink that features tropical fruit will be considered for this year’s prize.  All beer, soda and other beverages are member made, so you still have time to plan yours and bring it to the party!  If you plan to bring a keg, please email Carl at competitions@pacificgravity.com  with the name of your beer/soda so you can get a festive tap tag.

As always this event is run by the volunteers, you help is needed!  Set up will be on Friday at 6:30 pm and clean up on Sunday morning are especially necessary.  The volunteer crew has always had a lot of fun while working and it is a great time.

If you have any questions about food, feel free to contact me at MasterChef@pacificgravity.com or if you have question on volunteering you may contact Parker at President@pacificgravity.com

Summer Party Now 8/31

<

Greetings Pacific Gravity! 

Hello All,

We have now selected a new and improved date for the 2024 Legendary Pacific Gravity Summer party – Saturday August 31, 2024.

It will be at the usual location of Il Palazzo di Sussman from 2pm until 10pm. Chef Ian is planning a Hawaiian theme, so please bring some island style sides to share with your PG Ohana.  Of course we will be holding the annual informal competition for best homebrew/soda so please share your excellent works of zymurgy and/or non-alcoholic soda!

Also, we definitely need setup help the night before, so please come by if you can, and, as always, we need help cleaning up in the aftermath to restore the Palazzo grounds to their original, pristine state on Sunday morning..

Please also be sure to let Carl know what beers/sodas you intend to bring so we can manage serving equipment.  Send him an email at c136@7d.com.

Setup: Friday 8/80/2024 6:30 pm

Event: Saturday 8/31/2024 2pm
Dean Sussman’s
1310 Amalfi Drive,
Pacific Palisades, 90272

Informal Stuffed Sandwich Visit 8/17

In her most recent monthly newsletter, Marlene mentioned that she needs to shutdown for a while due to medical reasons on 8/29.  I just spoke to her briefly and she said it might be for 3 months.

I suggest anyone who is interested should informally drop by Stuffed Sandwich on Saturday 8/17 and grab a sandwich and a beer to help support.  I specifically asked to her NOT to plan anything for us because we don’t want to add to her workload at a time of stress, but I think extra patrons would be appreciated.  It may be very crowded or not… no way to know, but it is always a good time!

Their hours are 11am-8pm

Pacific Gravity Summer Party Saturday, July 23rd

Greetings Pacific Gravity!

Time for some blether, braw and fizzy juice!

This year’s summer party is set for July 23, 2022 and will be held at Dean Sussman’s Highland’s home located at 1310 Amalfi Drive, Pacific Palisades.  It is sure to be a wee beastie!

However, this being a ‘bring a plate’ potluck event we want you to bring your favorite dish along to the event as well; any dish is welcome, so the menu is WIDE open for you to bring your best scran and show off your culinary skills!

The summer party is a volunteer’s event, and we need lots of volunteers!  Volunteers will be needed for set up the day before and clean up of Dean’s house the day after.  We pay all volunteers in beer at the event, all-you-can-drink in fact; the only catch is we need you to brew the beer so we can use it to pay the volunteers!  Lot’s of beer!

We also need your sodas for the non-alcohol drinking crowd, if you have a good soda recipe; this is a great place to show it off.

Along with our best beer of the party judging we will also host this year’s drink competition!  Bring a batch of your favorite non-beer or non-alcohol (sodas count!) summertime drink and we will judge it and announce a winner at the event!

As always with the pandemic, we expect everyone to be fully vaxxed and/or non-symptomatic.  Please be careful and remain safe at all times.

Stay tuned for additional details!

Pacific Gravity 25th Anniversary Summer Party Virtual From Smog City Brewing!

Greetings Pacific Gravity!

I hope this message finds you all safe and healthy as we continue to shelter in place through the summer!  We are holding this club together using technology, innovative thinking and good friends in brewing!  As you all may have guessed by now, there will be no summer party at Dean’s party pad this month!  And it is a real shame too as we had finally convinced him to allow us to dig a pit in his yard (this year only!) for a whole pig roast to celebrate our 25th anniversary!   He was also going to empty his pool and allow us to turn it into a skate park!  That would have been a rocking event!  Oh well!  The pandemic has forced us to change our plans!  That 25th anniversary version of our summer party will have to occur next year.

This year we will be virtual and we are serving you up a great one to celebrate with your fellow club members!  Jon and Laurie Porter have graciously agreed to host our 25th Anniversary Virtual Celebration of our annual summer party.   For those of you who have been attending our virtual club meetings and first Friday’s will have some clue about how this is going to work.  Porter has put together what we consider a fantastic package of extremely drinkable beers plus a gift for each member who participates!

The plan for this summer party is this, you buy the beer package from Smog City (link:   https://smogcitybrewing.com/collections/beer-delivery-or-taproom-pick-up )  Then cook yourself what ever summer party food you want to eat, then join us Saturday July 25, 2020, starting at 4 PM on the virtual Zoom meeting and drink Smog City beer and eat and enjoy being with your friends (virtually)!

It has been suggested that I send out some recipes from summer party favorites of the past for folks to use if they so desire, which I will do in a follow up post.

The beer package from Smog City will include:
2 From LA wit Love (a very easy drinking White Ale)
2 Sabre Tooth Squirrel (a Smog City classic hoppy Amber Ale)
2 Amarilla Gorilla (West Coast IPA)
1 Bourbon OE (Barrel Aged Barleywine)
Plus each order will include a complimentary Smog City Tulip Glass to drink your beer from!
The cost of the entire package is $33.00.

The great thing about Smog City is they will deliver your summer party beers right to your door!  No need to raid Ian’s garage!  It should be noted that if you order $50 or more, your delivery is free!    So, check out their website and add on another 6 pack to your order and receive the free shipping option!  Please remember to tip your driver though!

The PG beer package will be available starting on Friday July, 17, 2020.
Our Summer Party virtual event will occur on Saturday July 25th starting at 4 PM till…
Jon and Laurie will be joining us to talk about how Smog City is doing during the pandemic, their upcoming plans to open new locations and talk about the beers!

We are trying to incorporate door prize giveaways as well, so there will be prizes!
Please look for my follow up post with favorite recipes from Summer parties past.

We are not posting the Zoom link publicly but all members should have received an email invitation with all the details.  If you did not get the email but want to join the meeting send me an email at president@pacificgravity.org and I will forward it to you.

I hope to see you all on Saturday!
