Re: [JAB@thebarn.com message] JAB March meeting info and update

Can someone remind me of the prices for the shirts?  Long sleeve vs. short sleeve?  Also, preferred form of payment?  :) --- On Wed, 3/6/13, Eric Wentling <jackofallbrews(a)yahoo.com> wrote: From: Eric Wentling <jackofallbrews(a)yahoo.com> Subject: [JAB(a)thebarn.com message] JAB March meeting info and update To: "JAB(a)thebarn.com" <JAB(a)thebarn.com> Date: Wednesday, March 6, 2013, 1:35 PM Hey All! Hope you have been having a good month despite the crap-tastic weather we have been having!  Just wanted to update everyone on what we have planned for the next month. 1) Next meeting is this Friday 3/8/13 at Tim Roets' place at around 6:30.  This month Tim will give us a brief talk about meads, since his is our resident mead guru.   2) Shirts!  We are close to ordering our new Dickies JAB workshirts.  Ideally bring money to pay for them ahead of time so we have enough money for our order.  We will also be taking more orders at the meeting if you haven't contacted us yet about them.  JAB will be springing for the embroidered names so think about what you want on the shirt!  If you can't make the meeting but want a shirt (or2!) e-mail Tim or Mike B.   3) Belgian Brew Off!  Get brewing for our May Belgian beer extravaganza.  Tim handed out a bunch of free yeasts and Candi sugar at the last meeting to get people started.  I think he has a few more for this meeting.  I'd like to see a lot of us brew up some cool different Belgian styles and see what happens.  I just brewed mine yesterday! 4) The JABBarel is here!  Andrew picked it up this last week and is busy keeping it hydrated until we can introduce it to our Bier de Garde.  I think we have enough beer brewed up to fill it, based on the people who have already done so, but we'll do a final count and see if we can use any more over the next week.  There is also the chance that one or more of us may not have a "clean" batch, so we need a little extra in case--as well as some to top up the angel's share if needed.  If you didn't get in on the action this batch, we will be using it again for a second round later, so tell us if you are interested!  I'd like as many Jabbers as possible to be involved in this experiment. 5) Lagunitas competition!  Lagunitas is putting on a competition to get to brew your recipe there!  Only one entry per club, and they need a whole 6-pack for this.  Bring a couple bottles, growler, etc for us to taste at the meeting and the best will go on to the competition!  They want an American ale yeast and something easy to drink.  No spices or flavorings.  Brew with the crazy guys from Lagunitas and bring us some brewcred!    -----Inline Attachment Follows----- _______________________________________________ JAB mailing list JAB(a)mail.thebarn.com http://thebarn.com/mailman/listinfo/jab
