Re: INTER-CLUB CAMPOUT RESULTS - mba

1 Aug 2003

Hi All,
This is the easy way to reach everybody. Thanks to everybody that made the
interclub campout a success. Sorry I couldn't stay the whole time but at
least I made it.Great beer cooler on wheels!!!!  I was impressed with all
the great beers and meads that were there. I was truly impressed with the
enthusiasm of the brewers, skill of the brewers and the number of high
quality brews that were free to drink!! I returned from an 11 day winery &
brewpub tour in California prior to attending the campout. I can honestly
say that I didn't find the beers in California any better than the ones I
got to drink for free at the campout. We couldn't have said that 5 to 6
years ago now could we!! The food was also excellent!! What a great idea for
the menu!! A special thanks to Al Boyce for a laid back and very excellent
inter-club competition!! My kind of function.
Everybody that was involved, from planning to attending, thanks for a great
time!! I will be trying to pick the styles for next year soon. I was talking
to Al about some new ideas to get more beers involved for next year. Al, do
you remember what I told you??? Well, see you all at the ABR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cheers,
Wayne
PS: Bruce, email me about the hog that was cooked.

Bruce LeBlanc and the
 Cloudy Town Brewers for organizing the campout.  Bruce, you and the guys

 Great campout, I had to take off Saturday night earlier than I planned, but
...
  it
 was awesome.
 Two things...
 Who was the main organizer?  I would like to send them a thank you from
 SPHBC.
 Second, do we have the results from the master of malt?  I was going to
 send
 out something to the SPHBC members, but I couldn't recall all of the
 results.
 Prost!
