Subject: 2013 Schnapp Hans Homebrew Competition
Registration is now open for the 2013 Schnapp Hans Homebrew Competition at
www.http://schnapphanscup.com.
Judging will be at the Delafield Brewhaus in Delafield, WI (just east of
Milwaukee) on Saturday, October 12th. The competition is capped at 300
entries to maintain a 6-7 beers judged per flight for each judge. This
keeps the day running smooth and efficient so we have time to relax and
enjoy the food and beers available at Delafield Brewhaus. This also allows
us to do 3 sessions plus BOS in the day so you can earn 1.5 judging points.

>From Pig’s Eye to Summit—Saint Paul’s Brewing History by Bus
Saturdays 9/14 and 9/21, 3:30 to 6:30 PM
Meet at Summit Brewing, 910 Montreal Circle, Saint Paul 55102

Breweries springing up around Saint Paul are a powerful testament to our current fascination with the sudsy stuff. However, Minnesota’s capitol city has a long and rich history with beer, starting with the first brewery opened in Saint Paul in 1849. Today, Summit and other breweries share the city with thriving brew pubs, taprooms, and their historic predecessors—the imposing old Hamm’s and Schmidt Breweries, to name a few.
Start your Saturday night early and seek out a new go-to brew with Doug Hoverson, author of Land of Amber Waters. This meandering three hour tour of Saint Paul’s hoppy past and present features samples, conversation and hidden gems along the way.
This is being organized by the Minnesota History Center.
Mike, it sounds like you heard about it before it occurred.
Sincerely,
Rick Oftel

It's a 'social' gathering at Summit. Cote said it's not a 'meeting'. I didn't go. I don't understand MHBA anymore. There's no planned meeting on their calendar.

Subject: BJCP Written Proficiency Exam - 9/8/2013 - Minneapolis
I am hosting a BJCP Written Proficiency Exam for the North Region of the
BJCP on September 8, 2013 at 10am in Minneapolis, MN. To qualify to take
the BJCP Written Proficiency Exam, you must have a score of at least 80% on
the Tasting exam, and have accumulated at least 10 judging points.
The exam consists of two sections. The first section is 20 T/F questions,
where each wrong answer results in a 0.5 point deduction from your overall
exam score. The second section consists of five essay questions. Each of
these questions is worth 20 points.
As you probably know, the BJCP judge advancement system has changed. Now
the tasting portion of your score counts for 50% of your total score, where
it used to only count for 30% of your written score. Based on this, with
your current best Tasting score, you would need to score of 99 on the
Written exam to advance to Master. You need 40 points for Master, half of
which must be Judging Points.
You can find the study guide for the new exam at:
http://www.bjcp.org/docs/BJCP_Study_Guide.pdf
Some people have found the BJCP Exam for Dummies useful in studying for this
test also. The 2010 version is currently published on the BJCP website.
This was published prior to the new exam. It can be found at:
http://www.bjcp.org/docs/BJCP_Study_Guide.pdf
If you'd like the 2012 version, let me know and I'll email you a copy.
I only have 5 seats remaining for this exam, so it's first come, first
served. To reserve your seat for the exam, send a non-refundable check for
$15 payable to me. I will let you know immediately if you are one of the 5.
I will return any checks that come in after that.

also!
