Mash-Out entries accepted starting Jan 1st

by Crist, Jonathan

Have you made your New Year Resolutions yet? The number one resolution should be to enter the 2008 Upper Mississippi Mash-Out. There are only 5 more days until entries are accepted. Details can be found at: http://www.mnbrewers.com/mashout The upcoming holiday weekend is a perfect time to drink some homebrew and evaluate your entries. Don't forget the carboys or kegs you didn't get around to bottling. So pull out the BJCP guidelines and find style that matches your brew. Remember, the style that could win you all the swag and the Best of Show wooden chalice may not be the style that you actually tried to brew. Take some time to sign up for judging and take part in the indoor (growler) pub crawl, Brewer's Forum, Stan Hieronymous lecture and other perks for judges. http://www.mnbrewers.com/mashout/volunteer Don't miss out on the Belgian -themed beer banquet before the awards ceremony - still only $30 per person.

Sierra Nevada Bottles and Caps

by Rick Oftel

Bottle Opener Required. With the end of many breweries providing returnable bottles for homebrew filling, Sierra Nevada recently changed the configuration of their bottle and bottle cap. I believe they are now using an oxygen absorbing cap and have gone back to the traditional crown bottles without twist off spiral. Although they still use thin wall glass, this is a possible new source for homebrew bottles.

RE: [sphbc] Re: onion? deadline extension

by Adam Stern

There are currently 75 entries registered. We could always use more judges and volunteers; sign up online at www.mnbrewers.com. This is a BJCP registered event and a good way to get more judging experience. The official deadline is today, and beers are to be dropped off at The Onion offices at 212 3rd Ave. North, #445 in Minneapolis. However, if there is interest, I will extend the entry deadline by one day until Friday. ***!!!*** However, if you drop off beers on Friday, then please drop them off at Northern Brewer in St. Paul. This is the only location where beers will be accepted on Friday. Please give the entries to Heyward Gualandi. Let me know if y'all have any further questions or comments. Good luck in the contest.

Rye beer from potluck

by mark＠glewwe-castle.com

1st, my appologies for not remembering who brought along the rye beer at the MhBA Christmas Potluck Meeting. 2nd, I would really like to try my hand at making the beer. It had a nice balance (rye was present without being overwhelming), and I would appreciate having some of that around for my personal drinking. Anyway, if you have the recipe, please pass it along. Thanks, Mark Glewwe
