Argh! This is when the BJCP exam is taking place! Chris -----Original Message----- From: owner-mba(a)thebarn.com [mailto:owner-mba@thebarn.com] On Behalf Of SPARROW, JEFFREY C. [IT/1825] Sent: Monday, March 18, 2002 7:24 AM To: CBS-HB(a)LISTSERV.UIC.EDU Subject: AHA-NHC Great Lakes call for judges/stewards Call for judges and stewards for the AHA National Homebrew Competition 1st Round judging to be held at the Rock Bottom, 1 West Grand Ave. at State in Downtown Chicago. Judging this year will be held on the weekend of April 26-28 with primary judging on Saturday, April 27 beginning at 9:00 a.m. This year we have reacquired 1 state (Ohio) which puts our projected count at over 500 entries. We'd love to complete the judging in as short a time as possible but can only do this with adequate judge and steward support. Lunch will be provided by Rock Bottom's award-winning chef Chip Fegert and beer will be supplied by their equally award-winning brewer Pete Crowley. If that's not enough, we "may" even go out for a beer or two after the judging is completed on Saturday. The Rock Bottom is a scant few feet away from the Grand Ave. stop of the Red Line "L". It is also a brisk walk or a quick cab ride from the 3 downtown Metra Stations. Nearby parking is also available. Contact Joe Preiser at jpreiser(a)attbi.com or 630.759.4659 to confirm your attendance. Please note whether you will judge or steward and WHICH DAYS you will be available. Out-of-towners may also inquire as to the availability of beds-for-brewers. Join us for some great homebrew, food and commercial beer. See you there. jeff sparrow jeff(a)chibeer.org national homebrew competition - site coordinator
