What makes a beer "Mexican-style"? Don't just think about crappy Corona. Amber lagers, Chili beers, and this past winter Del Dorte even came out with a Mexican Christmas Bock.

Ribbons will be awarded for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd.

There is also a prize for the best beer name, so be creative.]]> Scott J Events/Competitions Sat, 19 Jun 2010 11:41:26 -0600 http://www.foamontherange.org/forums/read.php?1,63,63#msg-63 http://www.foamontherange.org/forums/read.php?1,63,63#msg-63

Denver Zoo is seeking people who are willing to do a brewing presentation for the Brew at the Zoo event this Sept 11. The presentation would involve brewing a batch of beer on grounds, chatting people up about the joys of homebrewing, and going over a presentation table of ingredients and equipment. Whoever presents would have to bring their own gear set-up and ingredients, but you would get to keep the beer and get a free participant wristband (you would be able to eat and drink as long as the booth is attended).

If you are interested, please email bnathan@denverzoo.org

Yours,
Bob Nathan]]> shark Events/Competitions Thu, 03 Sep 2009 20:56:16 -0600 http://www.foamontherange.org/forums/read.php?1,23,23#msg-23 http://www.foamontherange.org/forums/read.php?1,23,23#msg-23 Hi Foamers,

The American Homebrewers Association (AHA) still needs at least two volunteers to pour beers and answer questions about homebrewing, beer styles, the AHA, the Pro-Am Competition, etc. for the Saturday afternoon session and the Saturday night session of the Great American Beer Festival (GABF) on September 26, 2009. Volunteers should be AHA members. Volunteers who work both sessions on Saturday will receive a free GABF ticket to the session of their choice. Email Janis Gross at janis@brewersassociation.org if you are interested in this volunteering opportunity. Thanks!

Cheers,

Janis Gross

My name is Marco Olivo, and I'm a homebrewer from Berthoud. I also work at the Larimer County Fairgrounds which is where the Gnarley Barley Brewfest is being held on August 1st. I wanted to make sure that everyone knows that the HOMEBREW COMPETITION WILL BE HELD THE SATURDAY PRIOR TO THE GNARLEY BARLEY BREWFEST. That is to say that the homebrew competition is on July 25th not August 1st. We are doing this so that the judges & stewards of the homebrew competition may also attend the brewfest. All the judges & stewards will receive complimentary passes to the Gnarley Barley as a way of thanking them for their help.

There are 21 commercial breweries participating in the Gnarley Barley. The winner of this commercial competition will have a tap handle at The Budweiser Events Center for a year.

This is an AHA/BJCP sanctioned event. Pamela McAlpin is the competition coordinator and she can be reached at just.pamela@gmail.com

Entries can be submitted to your local homebrew shop between July 13th and 17th. We'll be picking up the entries on July 18th.

Pamela will be making a formal announcement via Tech Talk in the very near future.

Thanks for your support & Happy Brewing !

Cheers,
Marco
