Basil T’s Brewery and Italian Grill in Red Bank, New Jersey was proud to host the Central Jersey  #ShoreTweet community’s first tweetup! (A tweetup is a meet up organized through twitter to bring members of specific twitter communities or of a specific area together.)  The #ShoreTweet hashtag was started by Colleen Curry to plan the tweetup, and was the tag for dozens of posts from enthusiastic central Jersey tweeters.

Last night (a week after Colleen announced the tweetup) 14 of central Jersey’s finest Twitter users came together for the first time at Basil T’s.  The first half-hour  set the tone for the evening as people gathered around the table near the bar and met the faces behind the user names.  Introductions like “Oh, you’re ShoreFlicks!  I love your taste in movies!”  showed in a nutshell the value of these types of events to the Central Jersey online community.  The entire two hours (and then some) were filled with constant conversation over some complimentary pizza and micro brews, among which the Red Rocket Ale seemed to be everyone’s favorite.  You can view some wonderful pictures taken from the event here thanks to @Navesink!

Basil T’s looks forward to being an active participant in the growing online Central Jersey community through events like this and the upcoming Jersey Shore Restaurant Week.  Below is a list of the tweetup attendees.  If you attended and are not yet on the list, please send a DM to @BasilTs or @HelloPresto

Thanks again to everyone who came out and made this possible!
