Friday Night - Pizza, Beer and Bragging Rights at the Brewhouse

Plan on hanging out at the brewhouse this Friday night for the announcement of the top three places for the Tropical Stout competition.  The judging session begins at 6 pm and the announcements will probably happen sometime around 8:30.  Drink beer from the keezer, bring other bottles to share, and we'll order pizza for everyone.  Everyone is welcome, so feel free to bring a date.

Thanks to all the CHAOSers

Thanks to all the CHAOSers who entered beers - it was fun to learn about a style that for most of us was new and that we had never brewed before.  As a steward, I got to taste all the entries - they were all enjoyable, the ones that scored lower tended to do so because of style issues, not because of big flaws.  Well done!

Jon Phillips took the gold medal and will be brewing his beer at Lo Rez.  Brandon Kessler took the silver medal and Dan Reese took the bronze.  Congratulations to all of you!

Big thanks to Patty McGuire for her work in helping to organize this competition.  Patty will be taking the lead in organizing the next club-only competition, stay tuned for more details from her.  As we announced last night, the next competition will focus on the Trappist Single style and we will partner with Goose Island and one of their brewers, Tom Willmot.  

Thanks also to the judges last night - Kyle Nordquist, Jordan VonKluck, Meghan Sawa, and Kevin Lilly.  

Cheers!
