On Sunday, October 21, 2012 there is homebrew festival at Lakefront Brewery in Milwaukee...
They have 40 spots for brewers who want to serve their own homebrew (5 gal.). Its a competition too...
Details here...http://www.milwaukeehomebrewfest.com/
It's $20 to get a spot and I got one...I believe there is 7 left...
If anyone else is gonna participate you can ride up with me if you want...the event is from 11am to 6pm.
Should be fun and a good test of the current change in homebrew laws in WI about serving your beer to the public. Like we are trying to do here in IL....
Below are the benefits of participating....you can also just enter the competition or just attend...It is a AHA sanctioned event...
