The Prairie Ale House is closed indefinitely. The restaurant is going to be remodeled and rebranded over the next couple months. //Mike Behrendt

Re: [mba] MHBA cards and discounts

by Paul_Dienhart＠cargill.com

Cory, MHBA members get 10% off NB, Midwest, StillH2O in Stillwater and Brew n' Grow in Blaine, as well as Minneapolis Oxygen for CO2. If you joined by PayPal, print off your confirmation and use it until the card shows up. The clerks at these places want to be helpful, if you can give them any reason to go along. But we all know there are jerks who try to say they belong to the club when they're too cheap to buy a membership. We really appreciate it when clerks ask to see a current card. I was treasurer for four years until Neil took over. Can I remind all MHBA members (not directed at you, Cory) that this is a volunteer organization, nobody is getting paid, everybody is trying to work a job and be part of a family as well as volunteer for the club, so try to have a little patience about the service. Paul From: roadkingcory(a)yahoo.com [mailto:roadkingcory@yahoo.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 17, 2012 8:17 AM To: MHBA(a)bigfoot.com Subject: How long will it take to get in the mail? Is there a temp email or something I can use to get 10%off at Northern Brewer?? Thanks alot.. I can wait if its a week or 2.. Where else can I use this card?? I really dont know. This is my 2nd year as a member. Thanks again Cory

Brew Shuffle - homebrew sharing site

by popice＠juno.com

The creator of this site sent this link to me. Seems like an interesting idea so I thought I'd send it around. No entries for the Metro area yet but I suppose that could change. http://brewshuffle.com/ ____________________________________________________________ 53 Year Old Mom Looks 33 The Stunning Results of Her Wrinkle Trick Has Botox Doctors Worried http://thirdpartyoffers.juno.com/TGL3141/4f173d107370bbd45st04vuc
