Stout it Out Loud Volunteers

by

As discussed last night the judging for this competition is on March 24, 2012. We’ll likely start at 10:00 a.m. and hopefully be finished no later than 1:00 p.m. I’m looking for volunteers to judge and steward. If you are willing to help please comment below and make sure I have your e-mail, either in your comment or via the club user information. I’ll send out follow up to those interested in helping the week prior to the competition.

Denver County Fair

by

Is anyone going to enter into the Denver County Fair and going to drop their bottles off in person through the walk-in entry window on July 27 from 3:00pm to 7:00pm?  I would like to enter two beers, but unfortunately I will be out of town from the 26th through the 30th and cannot drop them off myself. I am hoping that someone may be able to drop mine off with theirs, I am willing to drop it off at your house/place of business/place of worship/favorite bar/etc.  I am also willing to bribe with beer.  Thanks.

Bryan

Anyone have a Kellerbier/Zwickelbier, European Dark/Munchner Dunkel, or English Style Pale Mild?

by

Breckenridge Brewery is having their 21st Anniversary and is hosting a mini homebrew competition

where the best of show will brew their beer with Breckenridge on the Breckenridge system. Only

difficulties are that it has to be one of the styles listed above and has to be entered by July 11th,

so it has to be ready now.
