We were at your very fun event last night and I lost my black fur lined vest probably in the street. I have checked the area businesses and neighbors to no avail and was hoping some one may have turned it in to someone at the hall. Please let me know at this email address. Thank you Mary Stimson

I'm certain you know the details, but if you were on the fence about attending tonight's fabulous Christmas party, well, fall to the 'go' side! What's not to love about a party with live music (Mark Kreitzer and Dan Newton), tons of homebrew, a keg of special commercial beer, mounds of lovingly-crafted potluck items, and a few delectable food surprises? You're correct--nothing! Bring at least 60-70 oz. of your own homebrew and we'll share it around with whoever is curious at 8:30 for the Brewers Hall of Fame program. You tell the interested throng when/how/why you made it, then tell us if you would like comments. Your beer provides a starting place for a group discussion of style, perception, and process, and for doing so, you enter the ranks of the club's Brewers of Fame.https://www.mnbrewers.com/mhba-brewers-hall-fame/ See you there!https://www.mnbrewers.com/events/event/december-meeting-holiday-party… John Personal.

significant other, kids, and/or any friends/family that have ever expressed
an interest in home brewing or beer. Just to be clear: you and your guest
don't have to be club members to attend, but we encourage everyone to sign
up for 2015 membership to support club activities in the future.
*As this is one of the most attended gatherings of the year, it's a great
opportunity to get out and meet your fellow homebrewers. If you have not
made it to a meeting or would like to join the club, the Holiday potluck is
a perfect chance to try some great homebrew and delicious food, and
exchange homebrew with others.*

for or renew club dues, this is the primary meeting for memberships— In
order to receive your laminated card at the Holiday Party, you MUST renew

Midwest Supply, Brew & Grow, & Still-H2O.

Hope to see you there!

It's just about Mashout time again!
Yup, it's going to be the thirteenth iteration anniversary and we're getting ready for yet another awesome Mashout!
The Mashout will take place on January 23rd and 24th, 2015. For you volunteers, and if you aren't one you really gotta get on board, the judging will be at Grumpys-Roseville again as it’s a great place with killer beer and food. We'll be doing a lot of the really cool stuff we always do...plus a few new angles. You'll be wined and dined like no other competition in the nation plus your standard commemorative beer and glass.
We'll have lunchtime speakers, again, for your enjoyment. For Friday lunch, Steve Piatz talking abou meads - how to make them, what to expect, etc. For Saturday lunch, Jace Marti will be chatting about sours.
The massively popular Friday night Piss-up will be back and better than ever. There will be some stuff a lot of
you guys have never tried before! As always, the ever awesome Cellar beer event will be the hallmark of the evening.
This year, the overall Best of Show beer will also have the option to have their beer brewed by Bent Brewstillery here in Roseville.
Finally, the banquet is always a great time. This year's dinner is going to be a beer pairing dinner in conjunction with the great folks from Goose Island. Last year we were full and seats, again, are sure to sell out quickly so get your tickets ASAP. You again get a commemorative glass, meal, beers and the debauchery that follows.
So, what are the important dates?
- Registration opens on 12 December.
- Registration closes at the end of the day, on 31 December.
- The Mashout happens on 23 and 24 January.
- The banquet happens the evening of 24 January.
So, just like the election, enter early and enter often! We cap out entries at 1,000 and we've hit that in previous years.
See you there!
