Subject: [mba] Bucket-O-Honey
Greetings brewers and mead makers. We have an opportunity to acquire a
decent quantity of honey at a reasonable price and thought it might help
some of you make a batch or two (or three) of mead. Dave Schroeder is
former president of the MHBA (Minnesota Hobby Beekeepers Association) and
has honey available in 5 gallon buckets (60 pounds). He will sell honey to
us for $120 per five gallons or approximately $24 per gallon. Ive used his
honey before and know it is high quality. Dave is selling his honey
rapidly and will likely be out of stock by early February. Im not trying
to rush or use force but I really enjoy making mead. You should too.
To keep this a low effort project here is how to proceed.
1. Decide you want a bucket or two
2. Send me a check by January 15 to the address below.
3. Make the check for $120 out to Dave Schroeder.
4. Include phone or e-mail address for pickup confirmation.
5. If you want 1/3 bucket or ½ bucket, buy a bucket and find someone
willing to share.
Any other questions, call or e-mail
The Fine print: I will exchange your check for the honey and will keep it
inside until you arrange for pick up. I am not able to front you for your
bucket-o-honey. Im terribly sorry but I dont tweet, twit, text, or accept
pay-pal. I do not have the ability to split buckets. I cannot read your
mind. If you want a bucket, send me a check.
Sincerely,
Rick Oftel
MHBA Previous officer and general nice guy.

> Cost $20 per person (cash or checks accepted; make payable to Northern Ale Stars)

Subject: ENKI Brewing Co volunteers
Hi Eric,
Dan and John had mentioned you may have some club members interested in volunteering around the brewery. I am working on putting together a schedule for our tap room. Do you think anyone would enjoy 'pouring for a pint' during our tap room open hours? I've listed the hours below. Initially, I'm thinking we would keep the volunteer shifts 3-4 hours. Being that we're brand new and don't have much background to go on, I'm not sure what our business will look like. So, having said that, I'm trying to make sure we have volunteers scheduled to help out, should they be interested.
Please spread the word and feel free to have your crew email/call me if they're intrigued. Thank you!
