June MHBA meeting - Rahr Malting tour

by Chris Smith

June MHBA Meeting: Rahr Malting Tour and Barbecue at Luskey's June 6th, 2009 - 11:00 a.m. - 5 p.m. The June meeting consists of two parts: a tour of Rahr Malting Company and a barbecue and pot luck at Dave and Sue Luskey's house. Rahr Malting is one of the few malting companies left in Minnesota. Its Shakopee facility is the largest single-site malt producer in the world, producing 370,000 metric tons each year. Rahr started operations in Shakopee in 1936 with malt house #1, and then later built four more malt houses. Malt house #5 is the most recent addition, built in 1991 with the latest and most efficient German technology capable of producing 12,000 bushels every 16-20 hours. We will meet at malt house #5 between 10:40-10:50 for the tour, which departs at 11:00 am. Bring a beer or two to give to the Rahr employees if you wish; they are greatly appreciated. Please label the bottle with the style of beer and the brewer's name. After the tour, a five to ten minute drive from Rahr Malting will take us to Dave and Sue Luskey's house, where the club meeting will resume after the tour at approximately 12:30 or 1:00 pm. Dave will be firing up the smoker and grill and giving brewery tours. Please bring something to share. Both the grill and smoker will be available for anybody to use. If you have any questions you can contact Dave at 952-496-2770 or at <mailto:sdluskey.2@netzero.net> sdluskey.2(a)netzero.net If you are planning on attending please email me and let me know so we can get a head count for the tour. <mailto:Csmitty42@yahoo.com> Csmitty42(a)yahoo.com Directions to Rahr Malting: 800 West First Ave. Shakopee, MN 55379 >From the Twin Cities: Go south on 169 towards Shakopee.

Ladies and Gentlemen

by Rick Oftel

Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, Do you know what time it is? Rather than subject you to stupid human tricks or lyrics that match old melodies, the snow is gone and the club road is dirty. I would appreciate it sincerely if we could give it a clean up shot next Saturday starting @ 9:00. I'll have the customary donuts and coffee and we'll meet 1/2 block north of Mainstreet in the parking lot on the west side of Shady Oak Road. If you can't arrive at 9:00, arrive when you can and meet the crew along the road. Remember, we need to wear orange vests and we have a great supply of garbage bags. Wear heavy shoes and bring gloves. The snow is really gone. It covered all the ground. It covered all the stuff The stuff is just enough It's dirty to the East And dirty to the South You get to keep the stuff We're sure there'll be enough. A few years ago our club picked a 2 mile stretch of road to clean and beautify. Yours truly was supposed to organize a club event about three times a year but unfortunately the organizational expertise had a hick-up last fall and the task never was accomplished. Long story short.... Meet 9:00 am MAY 9th in the parking lot 1/2 block of Mainstreet on the west side of Shady Oak Road. Free home roast coffee, a box of donuts, and all the road kill trash you wish to keep!!!! P.S. I'm setting up a beer event early in the morning but should arrive by 9:00. I'll be armed with my cell phone and will be driving my silver Jetta.
