Have you made your New Year Resolutions yet?
The number one resolution should be to enter the 2008
Mash-Out. There are only 5 more days until entries are accepted.
Details can be found at: http://www.mnbrewers.com/mashout
The upcoming holiday weekend is a perfect time to drink some homebrew
and evaluate your entries. Don't forget the carboys or kegs you didn't
get around to bottling.
So pull out the BJCP guidelines and find style that matches your brew.
Remember, the style that could win you all the swag and the Best of Show
wooden chalice may not be the style that you actually tried to brew.
Take some time to sign up for judging and take part in the indoor
(growler) pub crawl, Brewer's Forum, Stan Hieronymous lecture and other
perks for judges. http://www.mnbrewers.com/mashout/volunteer
Don't miss out on the Belgian -themed beer banquet before the awards
ceremony - still only $30 per person. Chefs Manfred Krug and Jerry
Pelton, both instructors at the St Paul Vocational Technical Institute's
Culinary program, have teamed together to prepare this year's feast.

Best of Luck to all
