At the moment, we have four teams set to go
against each other in the Stainless Brewer Contest this Saturday, May 6th at
Rick Oftel's. Please jump in now if you were still hoping to mount a
challenge.
TEAMS DO NOT have to brew on
Saturday!!! We have some teams that are, and others who are
brewing later, and even some that aren't getting their kits for a week or
so.
Teams may brew extract or
all-grain. Batches are 5 gallons.
The only stipulations are that you may use
ONLY the ingredients supplied, and that you must declare a style to me
within three hours of receiving your kit. Water and yeast are up to
the team. You may use as much of an ingredient as you see fit, but
may not use anything that is not given to you. This is a
"call-your-shot" contest, so after evaluating the ingredients, your team
declares to me which BJCP style you are shooting for. This cannot
change, regardless of what turns up in your carboy in a few
weeks!
Entries will be judged at the State Fair
competition, and one six-pack of 12-ounce bottles (or the equivalent amount)
is the entry amount.
The entry fee is $20 (but may come down,
depending on costs).
Here's what I have so far:
The Ornamental Hermits--Harvie Holmes and
Pete Kolias (all-grain)
Strange Brew--Dan Prokosch and Gera Exire
LaTour (all-grain)
Five For Fighting--five folks from the
winter BJCP class (all-grain????--please verify)
Jon Messier and Cory Dallas--extract--name
pending
It would be wonderful to have a few more teams
competing, so let me know, please!
Thanks,
John
