Next Meeting - Monday July 12 @ FAT JACKS

July 5, 2010 · Posted in Annoucements · Comment 

Due to the success of Medici, they can no longer guarantee us free meeting space when we need it. Therefore, we have moved the July meeting to Fat Jack’s and will hold discussion on a more permanent location for our future meetings.

Also, the style of the month is Mead, and we’ll be having a technical presentation about getting started kegging.

Hope to see you there!

Club-Only Competitions

April 17, 2010 · Posted in Annoucements · Comment 

blueribbon1During March and April’s meetings, the ABNormal Brewers conducted some informal tastings of club members’ beers in order to select the best beer for the AHA Club-Only Competitions. March’s beer style was American Ales. Five different club members entered a total of 6 beers. Ed Embree took first place. Four different club members entered April’s competition (extract beers) Ed Embree took first place again with his Dunkel. The club will reimburse Ed for entry fees and shipping costs to submit his beers to the National Competitions.

The next Club-Only Competition will be Mead. Entries are due at the end of July so we will select the best Mead from our club during the July meeting.

Please see the club’s beer style schedule for other upcoming club-only competitions and get your beers ready!
