ONE FOR THE ROAD INC.
Held remotely by Zoom and subsequently Instagram Live on 25 December 2020 commencing at 21:00pm.
PRESENT:
Jack Booker (director)
Dan Finn (director and in the chair)
1. Quorum
1.1 The Chairperson reported that notice of the Christmas Party had been given to all directors entitled to receive it and, having noted that a quorum was present immediately cracked their first can of the festivities, being a Deya – ‘Steady Rolling Man’, and declared the meeting open.
2. Background
2.1 The Chairperson reported that the meeting had been convened in order to:
2.1.1 consider, and if thought fit approve the business plan for the Company for the calendar year 2021;
2.1.2 enjoy a general chinwag about the year to date whilst getting mildly inebriated; and
2.1.3 to drinksync the final beer, day 25, from the Premier Hop Advent Calendar.
2.2 The meeting was impromptu adjourned as Dan had tragically overpoured the last half of his can into his ridiculous choice of 125ml stemmed beer festival glassware and ran to the kitchen for kitchen roll and carpet spray.
2.3 Upon resumption it was NOTED that Jack had finished his can of Deya, remarking it was “pretty good” and had now cracked a can of the grandiosely named ‘The Exterior Life and the External World’ a 5% DDH Pale by Cloudwater brewed with Kveik yeast. Dan glumly finished the meagre 70mls of Steady he had rescued and followed suit.
3. Business Plan
3.1 The latest draft of the 2021 “One for the Road” business plan was produced to the meeting (Business Plan) produced to the meeting and the terms of the Business Plan were carefully considered.
3.2 It was noted in particular that:
3.2.1 there would be weekly IG live beer syncs with corresponding written reviews posted to the website; and
3.2.2 the patented terms “nosefeel” and “chubby stout”, amongst others to be established, would be utilised with increased vigour.
3.3 It was further noted that a new exercise regime would need drawing up with immediate effect as there were concerns, albeit alarmingly slight, that there would be significant liquid calorie consumption associated with the Business Plan. Jack mumbled that he had spotted a gym near the property he was in the process of purchasing whilst pouring the remainder of the grab bag of McCoy’s ‘Nacho Cheese’ Muchos into a Perspex salad bowl.
3.4 Whilst mulling the terms of the Business Plan and shooting the breeze, the directors finished off their Cloudy Pale. There were general remarks to the effect that the Kveik yeast seemed to bring a cleaner and crisp zesty finish. Not bad but not top banana.
3.5 IT was then RESOLVED that entering into the Business Plan would promote the success of the Company for the benefit of its members as a whole, albeit their general social life and familial relationships might suffer, and that the terms of the Business Plan be and are hereby approved.
4. General Chatter
4.1 The Chairperson reported that he was sick of these “child’s-play” pale ales and was ready for something punchier and proceeded to crack a can of Verdant’s ‘Fruit, Car Sight, Exhibition’ (FCSE), the Falmouth outfit’s renowned 8% Citra DIPA. Jack followed suit and the tremendous nosefeel of dank and savoury veg coming from the can was duly noted.
4.2 There followed 15 to 20 minutes of back-and-forth rambling around the craft trends that the directors expected and hoped to see in 2021 (craft bitters, westies and table beers all received honourable mentions) punctuated by the occasional mince-pie and excitedly tipsy plaudits for FCSE as one of the standout DIPAs of the year.
4.3 The Chairperson noted that the Christmas Party had been underway for well over an hour and should the directors not proceed with their #drinkysnc without further delay, there would be considerable risk of needing a comfort break midway through.
4.4 IT WAS NOTED that the FCSE was tanked with impressive determination and a fresh receptacle prepared for the final beer of the Premier Hop Advent Calendar.
5. Premier Hop Advent Calendar Day 25
5.1 The Chairperson noted that the video and corresponding written critique of Day 25’s beer had been added to the website and he was too far along to write anything succinct at this stage but the directors agreed that they would be signing up to Premier Hop’s 2021 advent calendar and now felt left with an empty hole in their lives and were unsure how to spend the days between Christmas and New Year.
5.2 IT WAS AGREED that an online beer order should be placed imminently and questioned whether such a thing as craft sales on Boxing Day existed.
6. Closure
6.1 There being no further business, the Chairperson declared the meeting closed.
