If you are interested in participating as a judge or steward, head on over to the competition website and get registered. As usual, we will need all the help we can get.
Get those entires registered too. Judges and stewards are welcome to submit entries. Deadline is 5/13 but register early and often. Each entry is only $5! Medals will be awarded to 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners at each table. NEW this year: the club will be awarding a commemorative custom tap handle (picture coming soon) for the overall Best Of Show Winner. This won’t be a traveling trophy. Win it and it’s yours to keep.
We’ve seen an increase in the number of entries several years running now and I hope the trend continues. These club-only competitions are a bunch of fun. Plus we get to keep all the love in house.
Bracket Lager Competition Update
Eight entrants entered and Blackyardigan emerged victorious. Joe’s winning schwarzbier had half of the total cast votes. Much shit talking and flaw finding was engaged in and generally folks had a good time! Next year we need more judges 😀
Learn to Homebrew Day @ Ferment Station
Quick update!
We brewed 10 gallons of Oatmeal Stout. About 4-6 folks who weren’t in the club came out to check us out. Thanks much to FS for donating all the ingredients. The batch was split and WLP007 and WLP004 yeast were pitched into the different 5 gallon better bottles. Look to sample the beer at the club Christmas Party.
Come join TVH as we brew out in front of FermentStation. We will be starting our 10 gallon all grain demonstration around 10am. There will be staff on hand to help you if you are just getting started or considering brewing for the first time. More advanced brewers are welcome to join us to see the club’s system in action.
Learn To All Grain Brew
The club will be having an education oriented brew out on September 10th. Well, it was going to be then, its going to move to the following weekend, either Saturday or Sunday, yet to be determined. We’ll be going through the all grain process in detail. So if you haven’t leapt to all grain, or just want to improve your skills. This is the event for you.
Full information on the club calendar.
