Absolutely it would be a good gathering to attend.  There are almost 
always people in attendance who don't have homebrew to bring at the 
moment.  It's never a problem.  If there is a particularly interesting 
craft brew in your refrigerator that you are willing to share, that's an 
appropriate thing to bring, and it is also completely fine to come 
empty-handed once in a while.  Kevin is telling the truth when he says 
that *you* are the important to bring.  (Once in a while if I have time 
or have beer in the fridge, I'll have a some mixed of "regular" 
craftbrews -- i.e. nice but easily-available-at-stores beer -- in my 
cooler, just in case the very rare beer shortage occurs.)  And you can 
bring any food you like, e.g. if you have a specialty you like to share, 
or you can stick to the instructions ("something for the grill") or if 
it doesn't work out to bring food, there will be plenty. 

It will be great to meet you and Julie.  (Remember, she wrote me back in 
April.  I thought I remembered that, had to go look at the old emails to 
get her name though!)
