Greetings Fellow Hoppers,
This is a reminder that I we will have our general meeting tomorrow night,
April 9, 6:45 PM at the Rockyard. Here are some things to think about in
the meantime…
——– 23 ROCK CONTEST – JUDGMENT DAY ————————————–
If you brewed a beer with the second runnings of the Double Red from the
Rockyard, it’s judgment time! *Bring four (4) 12 ounce bottles or two
(2) bombers* for each entry to the meeting tomorrow, find Walt, and
he’ll check your brews in. We’ll be conducting a blind judging,
/so don’t bring your beer in any distinctive bottle/.
