If you are willing to help out, please contact Bill VanZante ( bill.vanzante(a)pioneer.com <mailto:bill.vanzante@pioneer.com> ). We will need help stewarding and judging beer. By helping out, you can earn points towards a lucrative title of "Cert. Beer Judge!" If you can't help out, you are invited to attend afterwards for a IBU potluck and gathering. I think we'll even have a few beverages to share!! Bring some more if you wish!! Should start ~5 p.m If you have questions regarding the potluck please contact myself or John.Gallagher(a)wdm-ia.com <mailto:John.Gallagher@wdm-ia.com> . This will be a great time for some of the best homebrewers in central Iowa to talk beer. You need to be there to spread the homebrew knowledge!! Since it's a homebrew contest, we need your beer(s)!!! You think you have a good one? You best put it up against the rest to find out!! Yes = that's a challenge! The cost is $5 for each entry. I've attached direct links to the rules/regulations and also competition form printouts. Please use a rubber band to attach the forms to the bottles(need 2 bottles for each entry). Competition Info: http://www.iowabrewersunion.org/events.htm <http://www.iowabrewersunion.org/events.htm> Here is the link for the competition printouts http://www.iowabrewersunion.org/images/EntryForm02.pdf <http://www.iowabrewersunion.org/images/EntryForm02.pdf> Please indicate what style you want your beer judged as. If you have questions on this, you can refer to www.bjcp.org <http://www.bjcp.org> for more information. The contest is open to all beer (no, not commercial -- nice try though!), meads, and ciders. This link below is the IBU website homepage. It contains addresses of places to drop beers off. You may drop beer off at my place tonight (Monday) from 6-8 pm and also on Thursday (28th) from 6-8 pm. You may drop beer off this Saturday at Mark McAndrews(DM) and Mark Vernons(Ankeny). I believe Saturday will be the last day for entry. A very few exceptions could be made -- but it will cost you 3 beers for each entry!!! See the link for the maps. My residence is on 2814 Westover Blvd - north of the Westover Funeral home about 6 blocks. We are just south of the Urbandale City limits. http://www.iowabrewersunion.org/ <http://www.iowabrewersunion.org/> The IBU homebrew club is a group of craft brewers who meet every 3rd Monday of each month at the 4 Points Sheraton in Urbandale. We are open to all brewers and those who just love GREAT beer!! If you have not brewed beer, we can help you get started!! It's a great hobby and the benefits get you happy. Our next meeting will be the 18th of March. Once again, the 4 Points Sheraton in Urbandale. Just go down the main steps to the meeting rooms. We are usually the last room down the long hall (they must think we get rowdy or something.........). Just identify yourself as a first comer and we'll hand you a beverage! Please let me know if you have questions. Brian
