Just a reminder that the April meeting is the "Home Brew Fest" so make sure to email me what beers, ciders, or meads you plan to bring. Previously, we have had over 50 different home brews to sample. Prizes will be given for People's Choice Beer and People's Choice Mead/Cider. You still have time to brew something up!

Potential Kegerators

by Rebecca Nyberg

Would anyone like an old fridge (dirty) or a pretty modern freezer (clean) to turn into a kegerator? Must be picked up by April 1, as I'm moving. The fridge is circa late '70s, and no one has looked into its scary uncleaned interior for a few years, but I'm sure that it still runs. Perfect for a garage. Or teenagers. The freezer is very nice. It's an Imperial model, with a switch and heating element for defrosting. It also has an alarm, which unfortunately does no good when you leave the door ajar on your way out for the weekend (I know this from personal experience). Due to that lengthy frost buildup, the freezer no longer creates a "sucking" action when you close the door, as the door seal needs to be replaced. I hear this is a very easy thing to do, but as I'm officially an empty-nester, I don't need a big freezer. You could still use it without replacing the door seal; it would just build up frost faster. These are available for free, although if you'd like to throw down a case or two of homebrew for my moving crew, that would be awesome! Best to contact me via e-mail: beer.wench.reb(a)gmail.com Cheers! Rebecca

by beckel

Thanks to all for coming out and bringing delicious chili and libations! I forgot to record down the full names of the winners of this years cook off so if those who won prizes in their categories could email me with their contact information it would be much appreciated. I know one winner was Tom Farrell (open category), and I believe the other winners were a Dave F (with beans) & Maeve (without beans). Prost! Jonathan Beckel

Judging slots for the 1st round of the AHA National Homebrew Competition St Paul judge site are half full. Seating at the judge site is limited. Sign up here: http://www.canadianbrewer.com/NHCRoundOne Don't expect to be able to sign up at the last minute. Unless you have sufficient bribery cash or good beer. I said good beer, not some bourbon barrel boozy crap. A list is available upon request. Please forward to other club lists you may be on as I'm too lazy to look them up myself. Have a super awesome day! (No. I mean it.) -- Steve Fletty St Pal Site Judge Coordinator

April MHBA meeting 4/29 at noon-3pm

by Gera Exire La Tour

Hey everyone. I just wanted to let you know that the next MHBA club meeting is April 29th from noon - 3 pm at the Black Forest Inn Party Room. This is a separate, private room from the restaurant that is located on the other side of their outdoor patio. This is our fourth annual Home Brew Fest, which has been a highly popular meeting! Please bring your home brewed beers, meads, or ciders to share with other club members. In the past, we have had over 50 different styles to try. A couple of bottles, growlers, or kegs are all welcome. Please send me an email letting me know what style of beer/mead/cider you plan on bringing. (Signing up ahead of time makes it easier for me to keep track. But you are still welcome to bring your brew the day of the event.) There will be prizes for People's Choice beer and People's Choice mead/cider. The Black Forest has excellent food, so I hope you will consider ordering lunch while you are here. The address is: 1 East 26th Street, Minneapolis, MN 55404. There is a parking lot on 26th. I am looking forward to it! Gera Exire LaTour gera_latour(a)hotmail.com

by wanna.b

Once again, it is time for our annual Chili Cook-Off! Date/Time/Place: Saturday, March 24, 2012 4:00pm until 7:00pm Lucid Brewing, 6020 Culligan Way, Minnetonka, MN There are three categories in which you can enter: Red Chili - meat, but NO beans Chili with Beans - not really chili, but we're here to have fun! Open - green, vegetarian, white, whatever You can help out by bringing your chili ready to eat in crock pots and bringing along extension cords, power strips, and serving utensils. Bowls, spoons, and napkins will be provided. We will be looking for judges for each of the categories and have everyone vote for their favorite overall. The winner of each category gets a prize and the People's Choice winner gets a prize and the honor of bringing home the Chief Chili Pepper trophy! The March meeting also features a swap meet. Bring things you no longer need. You can sell them, use beer currency, give them away, even swap! Of course, we welcome all the home brew you would like to bring to the meeting, especially beers that go well with chili. We even like meads and ciders.
