As homebrewers when we think about the State Fair, we think the MN State Fair Homebrew Competition. We could use your help in passing along the word to all the homebrew clubs and homebrewers in MN. Please forward this email to your clubs and encourage your members to enter and volunteer for this great event. Attached is the flyer which you'll start seeing this week at the local homebrew stores and craft beer purveyors around the state.
