 Comrades,

 
Those of you interested in helping with stewarding, please show up around 9am to sign in to be assigned to a judging pair.  If you're still on the fence, do it!  It's a lot of fun.
 
If you plan to just show up for the event, taps open at 1pm, but you can arrive earlier for lunch -- chicken and/or pork tacos for $5. We have a killer raffle lined up supported by numerous sponsors -- local breweries, homebrew shops, and suppliers. Don't miss the Bourbon Barrels and bring plenty of rubles!
 
I hope to see all of you there as the next BBBB WInner, to be brewed by Saint Arnold, is unveiled.
 
Judging:
1st round: 9-1030
2nd round: 1030 - 1130
BOS Round: 1130-1230
Lunch served 1100
Taps Open 1300
Raffle starts 1400
Winners announced 1430

It's November, so you all know it's time for the Special Phrenology Edition of The KGB Files.  Oh, and don't forget that little something we call the Smörgåsbeerd.  November 10th.  Don't miss it.  Five bucks.  Start the holiday season right, comrades, and Smörgåsbeerd your ass off!

By Comrade Mark on 10/7/2012 10:30 AM

Comrades, it’s actually cool outside!  Don’t take my word for it.  Strip naked and walk out the back door.  It’s invigorating!

Not quite as exciting, however, is this month’s KGB files.  Read it anyway, though.  The Czar commands you!

The months are flying by and the newsletters are keeping up.  Here’s our latest.

Damn.  It’s hot out there.  Stay in.  Open a beer.  Read the latest newsletter.
