Subject: Between the Bluffs Homebrew Competition
I am sending you this email to reach out to area BJCP judges to see if you would be interested in helping us judge the competition. The competition will be held on 4/18 in La Crosse WI at the Root Note located @ 115 4th St S. We expect to start around 10 am.
If you choice to help us we will provide each judge with 2 tickets to the Between the Bluffs Beer, Wine & Cheese Festival held on 4/25.
We will also try and assist with lodging for a few judges if needed but can't guarantee how many we will be able to accommodate so if you need lodging please contact me early.
Thanks
Mike Sutor

> When: • Competition Date: Saturday, February 7, 2015. 9:00 a.m. Judges/Stewards on site by 8:30 a.m.
> • Entry window: January 1, 2015 to January 27, 2015.

> Why join us?
> We can use certified judges and mead aficionados for judging and stewarding. We have a number of local BJCP-certified mead judges, but always need help. For those wanting to learn more about mead judging, this is a great competition to attend. We’ll try to pair you up with one of our experienced mead judges. Each volunteer will get an etched Domras wine tasting glass and look for some of our new SBL “crimp-less” bottle openers to be available as well. Drawings for a door prize or two will be in order. Bagels, etc. will be available before we start and snacks in between. Immediately following judging, we hold our epic post-party and oyster roast that is an event not to be missed, so if interested in helping to judge or steward, please sign up on the registration page and/or email me and come join us. We generally try to finish in one round though a few folks may have to do two small rounds (we strive for no more than 10-12 total meads per judge). BOS will coincide with the beginning of the after-party with results announced shortly thereafter.
>

>
> Michael Fairbrother, of Moonlight Meadery, will be joining us once again to showcase some meads as well as provide some expert evaluations,
>
>
>
> Why enter?
> You still have two weeks to enter. The cost is just $7 first entry and $6 each additional entry. Any size bottle is acceptable (meads will be served “blind” by our experienced stewards to allow for non-standard bottle shipments). We know your mead is a precious thing. You can send any number of bottles you want, but we do recommend a minimum of one 750ml, two of anything smaller, and two if carbonated to ensure a fresh bottle for the BOS round. Three are recommended for the “Other Fruit Mead” category due to a likely MiniBOS round. Ship early and we will get conditioned quickly so they are ready for competition day. Ribbons and lots of great mead-centric prizes from the Savannah Bee Company (can you say 100 lbs of regional honey!), commercial meadery products, and Savannah Homebrew Shop will be provided to winners.
>
> At this point we don’t have plans for remote drop-off locations where our club members would pick up. If entries are registered and paid for and at proper condition, however, we can accept the entries the morning of the competition (or better yet on Friday) if someone is planning to come judge from an outside area. We’ll leave that up to each club to arrange. Just let us know in advance about any special arrangements needed.

> For more information please visit the SBL website at http://www.savannahbrewers.com/domrascup.php . The direct link to Domras Cup on-line registration page is http://domras.homebrewcomp.com

> For lodging, there are no hotels on Whitemarsh Island, which is 6-9 minutes east of downtown Savannah. A cheaper option is the Baymont Inn 2 miles west of downtown. The area is industrial but the hotel is nice and clean, and $85. Here is some info from Trip Advisor: http://www.tripadvisor.com/Hotel_Review-g60814-d563256-Reviews-Baymont_Inn_… . There are nicer (and pricier) hotels downtown in the $150-200 range with easier access to downtown activities.

> We are only the second longest-running, not nearly the biggest or most prestigious, but we make a claim to be the funnest mead-only competition in the world! Come join us!

About a year ago I bought some agave nectar which appears to have problems
with fermentation.
The jugs have a lot number of AA062013, with a 'best if used before date' of
06/06/15
Please let me know if you purchased one of the gallons of nectar.
Thanks!

The Mankato Beer Expo is right around the corner on Saturday, January 17th. They are looking for people to volunteer to help with the event. (Checking IDs/putting on wristbands/refilling water/cleaning up/getting ice, etc.) Volunteers usually work a few hours and have time to still enjoy the event. Please email Ilya if you are interested.-- The 3rd Annual Mankato Craft Beer Expo will take place January 17, 2015 from 2-6 p.m. The expo will showcase the offerings of craft breweries here in Minnesota, as well as all over the United States. Attendees will have the opportunity to sample beers from over 40 different craft breweries in a commemorative sampling glass.In addition to this, they can enjoy educational seminars throughout the day covering subjects such as Food Pairing, Homebrewing, and the History of Brewing in Minnesota.

Live music, food, various beer related vendors will be available as well.

UPDATED START TIME and with a map!
Looks like they prefer us to start at 10am if possible, so we'll shift the start time to 10am.
Also, here's a google map link to the warehouse, as google maps doesn't seem to like the address I posted: https://goo.gl/maps/7AUmt
