Hey everyone,

Just a reminder that the October MHBA meeting will be held at the Black Forest Inn on Saturday, October 15th from noon-3pm.

1 East 26th Street
Minneapolis, MN 55404
It is on the corner of 26th and Nicollet Avenue. (There is parking available in their lot on Nicollet.)

They have excellent food and beer and have always been very nice to us. In fact, the manager said to make sure to have people bring some home brewed beers. :)

Mark Shotick, a current member of the BJCP exam prep class, will be giving a presentation on sanitation.

Also, if you have any Category 23 - Specialty/Experimental/Historic Beers, please bring three bottles for the AHA Club Only. I received permission to send our entry out on Monday.

I am going to get club member score sheets (and hopefully prizes/medals!) from Eric Wentling from this past weekend's Byggvir's contest at the Renaissance Festival. If you are not a usual meeting attendee, send me an email, so I can get your stuff for you to hand out at the meeting.

Also, put on your calenders: the November MHBA meeting is Learn to Home Brew on Saturday, November 5th at Barley John's from 10 am to 3 pm. This is an excellent meeting to bring your friends that want to learn more about the art and science of brewing. There will be demos by Brett Glenna, Derek Fernholz, and me, as well as drawings for prizes for the newbies, and special this event, Barley John's will be offering a brunch (more details coming soon, but it should be yummy).

As always, drop me an email if you have any questions.
