FYI //Mike From: NBA Operations [mailto:nba.operations@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, September 08, 2014 11:43 PM To: NBA Operations Subject: 2014 Big River Homebrew Competition Dear fellow brewers, please pass this message along to your clubs and any other brewers who might be interested. The Nordeast Brewers Alliance <http://NordeastBrewersAlliance.org> is proud to be hosting the 3rd annual Big River Homebrew Competition. Capped at 225 entries and AHA/BJCP certified, this competition is for beer only, no meads or ciders. In addition to all BJCP categories, we also have two additional style categories: 100% Brett and American Wild Ale. If there are sour or funky beers out there, this is the competition for them! Registration <http://nordeasthbc.brewcompetition.com> is open until Sep 28th, entries are due at drop off locations the 28th as well. $8 per entry. A portion of our proceeds will again be going to the East Side Neighborhood Services <http://esns.org> , a non-profit neighborhood assistance group in NE MPLS. Last year we were able to donate $375 and are hoping to increase that amount this year. Judging will be Oct 11/12 at ESNS. We are welcoming volunteers for judges and stewards. We will be announcing winners on Oct 18th at the Big River Brew Fest <http://www.esns.org/event-1728508> , and will have score sheets available for pickup at the fest as well. By the way, tickets for this amazing fest are only $25! Register at nordeasthbc.brewcompetition.com to submit entries or sign up as a volunteer. Cheers! -Tyler -- Nordeast Brewer Alliance <http://nordeastbrewersalliance.org> fb <https://www.facebook.com/NordeastBrewersAlliance> @NordeastBrewers <https://twitter.com/NordeastBrewers>
