I was wondering if someone in your club could post our competition on your eMail List Server. Thanks. Cheers, Rodney Here is the event and call to judges posting: 6th Annual Drunk Monk Challenge Fellow homebrewers and beer judges, It's nearly spring... that can only mean one thing: It's time for the 6th Annual Urban Knaves of Grain Drunk Monk Challenge! The DMC is an AHA sanctioned competition, a qualifying event for the MCAB (Master Championship of Amateur Brewing), and a leg of Midwest Homebrewer of the Year. In addition to the BJCP categories of beer, mead, and cider, we'll once again feature our own special category, the Menace of the Monastery, for beer styles with roots in the monastic brewing traditions of Belgium and Germany: Belgian dubbel, tripel, pale, strong pale, and strong dark ales, plus German doppelbock. This year, the winner of Best of Show will have the opportunity to brew their beer at Walter Payton's Roundhouse, while the Menace of the Monastery champion will have the same opportunity at Govnor's Pub, in Lake of the Hills, IL. The competition will be held on Saturday, March 20th, at Walter Payton's Roundhouse - America's Brewery, in Aurora IL. Entries will be accepted between March 1st thru March 13th. Please visit the competition website for additional information, forms, and on-line registration: http://www.knaves.org/dmc/ If you are interested in judging at the DMC, please contact Mike Uchima by e-mail at uchima(a)pobox.com, or by phone at 630-416-9518. We will need to know your current BJCP experience level; what styles you are entering in the competition (if any); and any styles you would prefer to judge (or not judge). Thanks. Cheers!
