Here's the invitation for the FOAM cup in Oklahoma. As a reminder, the FOAM Cup is one in a series of seven qualifying competitions for the High Plains Brewer of the Year competition. Our contest, the Upper Mississippi Mash-Out, is the first contest in that series. I encourage everyone to enter! - Al -----Original Message----- From: philosopher(a)alemakers.com [mailto:philosopher@alemakers.com] Sent: Tuesday, August 22, 2006 9:16 AM Subject: FOAM Cup 2006 Greetings fellow homebrewer, You are receiving this message because you entered the FOAM Cup homebrew competition last year.
