Do you want to go to the best beer festival in the Midwest? MHBA has a
limited amount of tickets available for CURRENT PAID members. If you would
like tickets (we have a 2 ticket limit per member), e-mail me at
matt.weide(a)gmail.com. The subject line should read "GTOTM". In the body
indicate if you would like 1 or 2 tickets and your name. Once all the
tickets are spoken for, Matt will e-mail you back with his address and
instructions. Matt will require a check in his mailbox by April 25th or I
will release the tickets back to the group. The price for each ticket is
$61. We will send an email when all the tickets are spoken for. These
tickets are very hard to come by and we are doing this as a benefit of
membership to the MHBA. You can get more information at

One of our good brewing friend in Fargo, Dick Nilles, is selling a brew kettle – contact Dick directly if you are interested.

I am looking to sell my Brewing Technologies 20 gallon brew kettle. I already have a 10 gallon capacity and would need to do some upgrading in order to make this kettle work, plus I can never see the need to brew more than 10 gallons at a time.
I won this last year, brand new, never used. Comes with weldless ball valve spigot, trub dam and weldless plug for second hole. See attached pictures or visit the company site for more information.
I am located in Fargo North Dakota and to keep this affordable on both ends I would prefer to not have to deal with shipping (plus I don't have the box it came in). I will be at Homebrew Con in June and could deliver it then or make other arrangements.

I have two tickets to the Duluth beer fest on July 29 that includes
roundtrip bussing from St. Paul, lunch and VIP entrance to the festival. I
have a conflict, unfortunately. The tickets cost $112.27, but I will sell
them for $100. Details are at:

You can email me directly at: Dienhart.paul(a)gmail.com

chance.

Hey gang,
So you remember that cool stuff we had on the Silent Auction table at
Mashout?? Well is you weren't one of the lucky people with the winning bid,
you can still get one (for a discount). Not too shabby, right?? Right now
the deals that we have to offer are:
1) Hobby Beverage donated a 6.5 gallon conical fermenter.
https://www.minibrew.com/collections/home-fermenters/products/6-5x-gallon-co
nical-fermenter?variant=25674595014
This normally goes for $199, but if you mention "Mashout" during the order,
John will sell you it for $175
2) BH UNI-STAT IIa Temp Controller
https://tempstatcontrols.com/product/uni-stat-iia/
This normally goes for $79, but if you mention "Mashout", Bill will sell you
one for $69
Please do NOT post about this on Social Media!
Just in time for summer brewing..

Does anyone want to share a ride going to judge NHC First Round in
Milwaukee? I'm planning on heading out Thursday, April 6 and coming back on
the 9th. Let me know if you'd like to split the ride.
