The attached email from the AHA Tech Talk Forum should make anyone who
helps at a competition feel good! Those of us who helped up in Duluth
get a double dose of good feelings.

Subject: I WON!!!
Hey Everybody,
I just wanted to share the joy with everyone
that I won my very first contest!
This is only the second contest I ever entered
and I am super amazed that I won. My American Brown also scored really
high on the charts (actually had a higher score than my stout). Either
way, it is great to know that my biased friends are not the only ones
who think my beer is good.
I owe a bunch of this victory to the folks on
this forum whose earnest advice has served me better and better each
and every time I brew! For someone who has been brewing for just over
a year and a half, I have gone from simple extract beers to all grain
contest winners.
Thanks Techtalk and thanks to the Northern Ale
Stars for my very first medal!!!!! It will look great in my new
Brooklyn Apartment!

PS. I will enter these beers into more contests
soon so some lucky judge out there can be lucky enough to try it!
