On other business...
Anybody got any Fruit/Veg/Spice beers that they want to have judged? The
MhBA will be picking our club contestant to the AHA Club-Only competition
next Tuesday, Nov 12, 7pm at my house. Drop me an email if you've got an
entry, or if you'd like to help judge. If nobody enters, my Smoked Scotch
Winter Warmer will win by default, and we don't want THAT to happen!!!!

ALSO:
The NEXT Club-Only competition is BJCP Category 4 English Bitters. We will
judge the MhBA contestant at the January 9 BJCP class, currently scheduled
for Rick Oftel's home. (In fact, let's SWITCH the beer for that week to
Bitters and Pale Ales, and move Light Lagers to the Jan 23 meeting.)
PLENTY of time yet to brew for this one - pull out your burners and LET'S
GET BITTER!

Greetings fellow brewers, Rick here with the first test of the EBAS
(emergency brewing announcement system). I just received the following
message from the St. Paul home brewers. Sounds like something is
cooking up across the river at least for this writer sitting on the west
side. Anyhow, I don't have the complete e-list put together yet so I
am copying this message to the barn.
The St. Paul Homebrewers are going to be brewing a 30 gallon
batch of Dopplebock this Sunday. The plan is to do a decoction mash. A
few of the guys have done one and the others are willing to learn.
Here are the details:
Start time is 9:30. Good things to bring is beer to share and muchies.
Feel
free to stop by, hang out, meet the guys, have some of the numerous
homebrews, shoot the breeze, watch some football, get a look at the big
brew system, ask questions, etc....
Here are the directions:
No matter where you're coming from, this is the easiest. Take 35E to
Maryland Avenue exit. Go East on Maryland to Burr (5 blocks). Take a
left
on Burr. Go two blocks to Ivy. Take a right. Bradley is the next
street.
Our garage is the driveway on your left just before you get to Bradley.
Look for a bunch of cars in the driveway and guys standing around. If
you
miss the driveway, Bradley only goes left. We are the second house on
the
left. 1335 Bradley St. in St. Paul."
So this concludes this test. Should this have been an actual
emergency................
Have a great week-end

We still have some seats for the Cam Waters house concert at our home on
Saturday, 11/9, 8pm. Our beer-of-the-night is Name in the Road IPA II
(NITRo2), if you have a few bottles you'd like to share, bring them along.
See Cam's website at http://www.folkrocks.com/CamWaters.html.
Email me if you're interested!

Sorry for the short notice, but the next WestSide
Meeting will be at Hops. We had to juggle between my
schedule and Brewer Bob's, so this was the best date.
Bob currently has the Pale Ale, an O-Fest and a Stout
in additio to the regular lineup of brews. Hope to
seey'all there!

Unfortunately they are out for the season, as is their supplier
(Winehaven). I picked up 10# at the Farmer's Market on Saturday for $2.40
per lb.

I am not sure if their price is firm or if the inventory is available
but Northern Brewer shows 12 lbs of Orange Blossom for $25.00.
Steve writes about our favorite CO2 filling place:
> I normally go downtown (Mpls.) to get my CO2 cylinder refilled.
> The place is called All Safe Fire and Security (a division of All
> Fire Test). They are located at 915 Washington Ave. North, Mpls.
> Their phone number is (612) 332-3473.
>
> They have VERY reasonable pricing, and will fill your cylinder
> while you wait....normally 15 minutes or so...
And if you go in the summer at noon on Thursdays you get free lunch.
Who said homebrewers are CHEAP?

The Minnesota Timberworts are the sponsors for an upcoming club only
competition.
A date has been set for the AHA Club only Competition for English Pale ales
and Bitters (category 4).
January 25th, 2003, will be the judging and the due date for entry is January
20th. The location will be determined, but will be in Rochester.
We will need judges. I'm hoping we can get judges from around Minnesota or
Iowa involved. If you are interested in judging, please contact me
