The first round nationals will not be held in St.Paul this year, so if you’d like to judge first round, you’ll have to travel.  Here’s an invitation to come to Chicago on 4/19-22

Greetings Minnesota Judges!!

The 1^st Round Chicago region of the 2017 AHA Nationals will take place on Wed, 4/19, Friday, 4/21 and Sat, 4/22.  This year the location will be Two Brothers’ Roundhouse in Aurora, Il.  If you are familiar with this location, it is a great venue for judging with hotel accommodations (Holiday Inn Express) next door to the facility.  In addition, the building also houses the Aurora Amtrak/Metra train station, so transportation to and from the event is quite convenient for those who would prefer to take the train.

Wednesday and Friday judging will be at 7PM, while there will be 2-3 sessions on Saturday starting at 9AM.

Food and beverages will be provided, as well as some swag.

Sign up is at https://www.brewingcompetition.com/ , but you can also contact me to let me know your availability.

Hope to see you there!!

Cheers!

Joe
