Re: [SPHBC] Re: FW: Northern Ales Stars June Meeting this Saturday

by John Longballa

My bad-- I shouldn't have made Dawn sound like an ogre, considering that she usually can't wait to go to Fitger's and Twin Ports, and was more than willing to do 10 CA brewpubs on our recent vacation. I was just saying that this particular weekend I was warned that we're not supposed to be focussed on beer, but on getting the work done that we need to. She always puts the pedal to the metal when we're on our way to Fitger's (her grandfather worked there for 20+ years, and has the last can ever to come off the line!), just not this time. She's a fun-loving beer fanatic!

FW: Northern Ales Stars June Meeting this Saturday

by aboyce＠mn.rr.com

Duluth Beer club, the Northern Ale Stars, meeting this Saturday. Anyone going to be up that way? - Al Original Message: ----------------- From: Northern Ale Stars northernalestars(a)hotmail.com Date: Tue, 07 Jun 2005 13:09:11 -0500 To: Subject: June Meeting this Saturday The June meeting of the Northern Ale Stars is this Saturday, June 11 at the home of Cindy Spillers and Malcolm Davy. Malcolm personally guarantees the weather will be beautiful, so bring along lawn chairs to sit outside and enjoy the beginning of the summer season. Also bring your home brew or, if you planned poorly and just finished off all your home brew, bring an expensive imported beer which none of us could afford to by ourselves. Also bring a snack to share with the crowd. That's it....that's all you have to bring. The address of the Castle Spillers-Davy is 111 Greenwood Ln in Duluth (218-728-5094). The July meeting will be hosted by Dr. Dave Swenson at his posh country estate on July 23rd. Not to be outdone by the Spillers/Davy gala bash this Saturday, Dave promises an afternoon of beer Bocce Ball and merriment. Since the July meeting is the traditionally time of the NAS Bocce Ball tournament, Dave vows to continue the tradition and calls all who Bocce to gather and stake their claim to the crown. Beer and cheese will be the food and drink theme of the day, so plan to bring cheese which matches with the beer you bring. There may even be a contest to find the best beer and cheese match. More details will be forthcoming, so stay tuned. See you Saturday! -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ .

FW: Barley John's Beer Releases

by aboyce＠mn.rr.com

FYI Original Message: ----------------- From: Barley John's Brew Pub colin(a)barleyjohns.com Date: Tue, 07 Jun 2005 13:31:33 -0500 To: aboyce(a)mn.rr.com Subject: Beer Releases Barley John's pub e-Newsletter: 06/02/05 ******************************************************************** Dark Knight vs. Dark Knight Returns The Maibock is just about gone and with its exit comes some new seasonals and the return of some of your favorites. We have simultaneously released the new batch of Dark Knight along with the Dark Knight Returns, these are beers from the same batch but were aged in different barrels. The Dark Knight was aged in a first time use bourbon barrel, so the bourbon note it displays is quite obvious. The Dark Knight Returns is a second usage barrel (housed the original Dark Knight) and as such has a reduced bourbon note and much more balance. These beers are so different that they stand on their own, worthy of their own tap, and we are offering them side by side for your comparison. These are the "dessert wines" of the beer world, beautifully complex and sweet, in fact chocolate or cheesecake accompany this libation just as well as any port or dessert wine. ******************************************************************** The Dark Knight: For those not yet familiar, the Dark Knight (yes, it is a Batman reference) is our double fermented Old 8 porter, aged in a bourbon barrel for 6 months. Double fermented refers to a second "feeding" of various sugars to increase the alcohol content as well as bolster the flavor. Chocolate, coffee, charcoal and bourbon, familiar notes from the previous batch return in this years incarnation of the DK. Served in a 5 oz pour, the bourbon note from this tap is very prominent as it is a first time use of a Jim Beam barrel. -------------------------------------------------------------------- The Dark Knight Returns: The same profile as the Dark Knight (above), however, since this is a second time usage of the barrel the bourbon note is less prominent and the beer as a result is more rounded and balanced -------------------------------------------------------------------- 06/07/05: Belgian Golden Ale: Distinctive Belgian flavor, light in both color and body. We are releasing this light effervescent Golden ale to aide in refreshment to the oncoming summer weather. With the rain behind us, our patio is looking to be in full swing and in its honor we offer you the Belgian Golden Ale. ******************************************************************** Questions?

Chest Freezer Wanted

by Rick Oftel

Greetings home brew fans. Rick here with a request. More experienced folks mentioned that chest freezers operate as refrigerators for about 5 years and then give up the ghost. Yep. Coils corroded. Mine lasted for 8 years. Anyone know of a functional but currently not being used freezer that can be carried by two men and a dog? Price range - reasonable to free Moving - provided Leads appreciated. Also would accept a walk in refrigerator - if you know of one needing a new home. Rick O

Public Service Announcement For Immediate Release For more information, contact: Boreal Brewers Homebrew Club Charlie Parson 10th Annual Homebrew Tasting 3571 Mud River Rd. NW at the Neighborhood Tavern in Effie Puposky, MN 56667 (218) 243-2450 The 10th Annual Boreal Brewers Homebrew Club tasting of home fermented beverages will take place at 5:00 pm, Saturday, June 18, 2005 in the tent bar of the Neighborhood Tavern in beautiful downtown Effie. This event is open to the public. Eddie Jeff Cahill, a well known local folk/blues musician dubbed ³the Bard of Beer,² will be providing musical interludes for the tasting. A small cover charge will defray the cost of hall rental, entertainment and supplies only. It is not for the purchase of any alcoholic beverages, as all home fermented beers, meads and wines are donated. Local brewers, vintners, cider and mead makers are encouraged to bring some of their beverages to share. Six or eight 12 ounce bottles of each beverage are usually enough to offer a sample for everyone. The purpose of the tasting is to increase awareness of the fine art of homebrewing and the many beer styles that exist in the world, by giving away free samples in an informal setting. The tasting will feature a wide variety of donated home fermented beverages, including beers, wines and meads. Past tastings have seen an average of 25 different beverages contributed for sampling. The Boreal Brewers Home Brew Club was organized in 1991 by Jerry Bourbonnais and Steve Benson, long time local homebrewers. The club is a non-profit educational organization dedicated to the advancement of the art, science and appreciation of homebrewing by providing a forum for the exchange of homebrewing products, information and expertise. The club currently has more than 40 members from all across northern Minnesota.
