MINNESOTA CRAFT BREWER'S GUILD
Event Update - November / December 2012
_____
This year, for the first time, the Minnesota Craft Brewer's Guild is
offering Minnesota craft beer fans a Seasonal Six Pack, a pair of tickets to
all three Minnesota Craft Brewer's Guild events throughout 2013: Winterfest,
All Pints North and Autumn Brew Review. For $290 (+ticketing fees), you
score a pair of tickets to each of the Guild's wildly popular annual beer
events before they even go on sale.
Seasonal Six Packs go on sale this Saturday, December 1 at noon.
(Ticket purchase link will be available by that time on our website -
<http://www.mncraftbrew.org> www.mncraftbrew.org)
The benefits of this pack are clear: no need for multiple ticket site
log-ins, no waiting, no fear of missing out on tickets that often sell out
in seconds. That said, we are only selling a limited amount of these ticket
packs so act fast on December 1. You can plan ahead, line up your entire
year of Guild beer festivals, then sit back and relax. Plus the Seasonal Six
Pack makes a great holiday gift.
Below is more information about the 2013 Guild events. Be the first to stake
your claim on a year of Minnesota craft beer. Visit www.mncraftbrew.org

FYI Everyone -
This past summer's All-Club Campout was organized by Jack of All Brews
Homebrew Club in Waconia.
Many of us are members of both clubs, and others as well, and we all thank
Chris German and the folks at Rahr for their support, the wonderful tour
they put on as well as the gift of grain we received after the tour.
Be sure to look for Rahr malt when you're buying ingredients for your next
batch!

I agree 100 percent! Thanks to Chris and a big thanks to Emma also. It was
really cool to have her cut off her bracelet after the tour at Rahr. I am
also putting the malt to drinkable use. Thanks to all who make the club a
success. I am in Albert Lea so I don,t make the meetings or the parties.
Sorry Al. But I am a proud member of a bunch of the best citizens on the

Yesterday I used the last 4 lbs of the All Club Campout gift 50 lb bag of
Rahr 2 row malt. So I did the natural thing, I went out and bought another
bag.
How it was used:
2-batches Imperial Stout (it was popular) 1-batch White House Honey Ale Down
payment on a batch Irish Red Ale
Thanks again to the club and Chris German for making this possible.

They also currently have Third Street Lost Trout on tap and they are trying to get rid of the Leinie's O'fest, so that's going for $2/pint until keg is gone, then the Vanilla Porter will be going on. They've also got some decent bottles, Alaskan and Surly Bender among them. I plan on getting there before 7 so I can get at least one happy hour Furious!

Just a reminder to everyone that we have two lanes reserved this Saturday November 17 for 7:00 p.m. at the Waconia Lanes & Pub. Sounds like it will be $3.50 per game with free shoe rental. I also hear that they have Surly Furious on tap for $3.75 and a 3-7 happy hour offering 2 for 1! So you may want to arrive early to take advantage of that... just saying. Thanks to Dave for setting this up for us!

It's just about Mashout time again!
Yup, it's going to be our dozenth anniversary and we're getting ready for another awesome Mashout! This year’s theme, since it's our twelfth anniversary, is The Dirty Dozen.
For you volunteers, and if you aren't one you really gotta get on board, the judging will be at Grumpys-Roseville again as it’s a great place with killer beer and food. We'll be doing a lot of the really cool stuff we always do...plus a few new angles. You'll be wined and dined like no other competition in the nation plus your standard commemorative beer and glass.
We'll have lunchtime speakers, again, for your enjoyment. For Friday lunch, Steve Piatz talking all things sour. How to make them, what to expect, etc, etc. For Saturday lunch, Joe Formanek multi-multi-multi-award winning home brewer will give his own personal take on all things brewing and how to basically make kick ass beer.
The massively popular Friday night Piss-up will be back and better than ever. Piss up Dirty dozen-style. Bring your wackest, dopest, dirty or funky commercial beers possible. Sour, risqué and so on. This is an ode to twelve years of craziness. There will be some stuff a lot of you guys have never tried before! As always, the ever awesome Cellar beer event will be the hallmark of the evening.
We'll again be doing Al Boyce's fancy glassware for a swap-o-rama. Bring, trade, purchase cool glasses.
Brand new this year: The Pour Choice award! This inaugural award will be given to the brewer of any gold medal winning beer that most embiggens all that is Pour Decisions Brewing Co. The winner will then be brewed at PDBC sometime in 2013!
Finally, the banquet is always a great time. Last year we were full and seats, again, are sure to sell out quickly so get your tickets ASAP. You again get a commemorative glass, meal, beers and the debauchery that follows.
So, what are the important dates?
- Registration opens on 14 December.
- Dropoff begins on 28 December.
- Registration and dropoff end on 11 January.
- The Mashout happens on 25 and 26 January.
- The banquet happens the evening of the 26 January.
So, just like the election, enter early and enter often! We cap out entries at 1,000 and we've hit that in previous years.
See you there!

Forgot to mention, for those not familiar with tri-clover sanitary fittings.
Both the 1.5 and 1.0 inch tri-clover fittings use the same clamps, the only
difference is the inside diameter of the tubing. I use 1.5 inch fittings on
my system but am using hoses with 0.5 inch inside diameter with the
appropriate 1.5 inch flange and 0.5 inch hose barb, works just fine.
