Homebrew News – June 12

Anita tells us the Woodford Reserve Cup entries from the 11 homebrew clubs will require only one 12-ounce bottle for judging as it won't go to a best-of-show round (a corney keg or growlers for the reception is still wanted for showing off your club's winning brew). She advises the clubs to fill in the online entry form at BrewersCup.org just as all other entries giving the Club Name and use the 24A category.

The Hop Jockeys and IBADS are going to group brew at Upland on July 24th. Area brewers that want to meet fellows can find them there.

Here are pictures from yesterday's Brew-B-Q, attended by about 75 people from the Bloomington Hop Jockeys, Columbus Area Classic Alers, Duneland Homebrewers Assoc., Foam Blowers of Indiana, Howard County Homebrew Club, Indiana Brewing and Drinking Society, Michiana Extract and Grain Assoc., MECA Brewers, Ohio Valley Hombrewers Assoc., Gambrinus Society, Tippecanoe Homebrewing Circle, and Mad Anthony Serious Homebrewers. We're guessing a over 200 different homebrewed beers, meads, cisers, and ciders were available for tasting.

The FBI set it up again this year with point men Ron Smith and Frank Petrarca smoking the meat. Huzzah.

My apologies. I can't read MECA vs MEGA in my handwriting after about 15 or so tastes. Gotta start texting notes to myself. No, that won't work. Thanks for noticing.
