Re: [JAB@thebarn.com message] Lagunitas Brewing Company - MN Homebrew Competition - 2013

All - I am doing some cleanup/followup for those of you that entered a brew for the Lagunitas contest back at our March JAB meeting. I heard back from the Lagunitas rep and It looks like people that submitted a beer for our internal competition can get their names thrown in for the fly-away contest as well! So if you passed your beer around for this, reply back to me directly with your name and phone number. I will be sending them that info this Wednesday (Wednesday, April 17th). Hopefully one of us will win! Here are the names I have thus far but I believe there were a few more: Mark Glennon - WINNER Tim Roets Kieth Brady Eric Wentling Thanks! -Ben Ducklow On Feb 15, 2013, at 10:38 AM, Ben Ducklow <benducklow(a)gmail.com> wrote: The Lagunitas Brewing Company is sponsoring a homebrew contest exclusively for AHA sanctioned home-brew clubs in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area (This means us!). The winning homebrewer (along with 3 others chosen at amongst the entire contest) will win a paid trip to California this coming May 29th-31st to visit the Lagunitas Brewery and have the opportunity to brew a beer (which will be sold back in our Minneapolis/St. Paul market)! The competition is looking for a beer that 'consumers would enjoy drinking'; no lagers, fruit/spices or herbs can be used and must be made with an American yeast. If your interested, here's what you'll need to do: Bring some bottles to share at our next JAB meeting (which is on March 3rd at The Great Tim Roets house in Chaska). We will then vote on (as a club) the one best beer fitted for this competition. The winning brewer will then need to supply a six-pack (to be used for official judging) before May 3rd, 2013.
