Here is a link that my cousin, who is working and living in Copenhagen, Denmark sent me about how the people from around the world are feeling about the WTC and pentagon attacks. It is all in pictures, except from where they are from http://people.delphi.com/andybeals/thankyou.htm Erik Nelson

Re: Autumn Brew Review results/ Cal. Common Club contest

Well, I believe there were about 700 people who attended. We sold almost as many day-of tickets as in-advance. > Did you meet your goals? A complicated question. Our main goal was to put on the best beer festival this city has seen. If input from the people who I have talked to and the brewers who participated count for anything, I think we acheived that goal. A minor goal would be making some money for the two sponsoring organizations, the MCBG and the Downtown Council. We did not achieve that goal. However, we didn't bankrupt the organizations either. This brings us to individual goals of each organization. For the MCBG, it was to show people that there are quite a few Minnesota breweries that are making beer that can compete with any beer in the country. I say this with the utmost sincerety. I've lived in Arizona, Oregon, and California and I can tell you we *can* compete. Most places (like the Pacific NW) just have been at it longer than we have. The goal for the DTC is to promote downtown Minneapolis through events. We put 700 people in downtown at 7PM on a Saturday night, so I think that goal was achieved. Finally, will we do it again? I'd say yes, but we'll have to see how the DTC feels. I think it will grow at least two-fold next year. But we need the support of the people of Minnesota to insure the event can continue. It's a lot of work to put on the festival just to break even (or less). The organizers from MCBG have full-time jobs. Paul Norton is the National Director of Sales for Malt-O-Meal. I am trying to keep my brewery running while juggling all the details required to pull off the event. But, I guess I'd do it again, and I'm sure Paul would say the same. Well, that is probably a longer answer that you wanted or needed, but there you have it. Support your local breweries!

MCBG mailing list

by David H Berg

I have created a new mailing list for the Minnesota Craft Brewer's Guild. The list will provide information on upcoming Guild events, events at our member's establishments, and whatever else we want to advertise. I expect that it will be quite a low traffic list. If you would like to be part of the mailing list, send an email to majordomo(a)www.mncraftbrew.org with "subscribe mcbg" in the body of the message (leave out the quotes!) To unsubscribe, send "unsubscribe mcbg" in the body of the message. Cheers!

Re: Club-Only California Common Competition

by Rick Oftel

I have one too. Not great but not bad. The northern brewer started out with excessive citrus flavor but has mellowed quite nicely. Let me know if you want to get together. Rick

Re: Paddy Pale/Centennial hops

by Rick Larson

I have at least a 1/2 pound of Centennial whole hops in vacuum sealed bags in the freezer if anyone wants 'em. rick [text snipped to reduce bw] Date: Tue, 18 Sep 2001 08:06:04 -0500 From: Ray Daniels <raydan(a)AMERITECH.NET> Subject: Re: Paddy Pale/Centennial hops Yeah, Ralph Olson from HopUnion tells me there will definitely be a shortage of Cascades this year . . . hoard now or substitute later. As for "over the top" hopped beers, I've always been partial to Anchor Liberty Ale which is reportedly made with "all Cascades." One only hopes that Anchor has good contracts for their supply . . .

Paddy Pale/Centennial hops

by todd ashman

I'm pretty sure Mike was using Centennial hops in Paddy Pale. Possibly also throwing in some Cascade. You may want to try experimenting with Centennial as the 2001 Cascade crop was severely damaged by a 'freak' hail storm back in June or July. Though I can't recall the exact acreage it was in the thousands and one of my hop purveyors considered the loss 'significant'.
