Okay here’s the deal. We’ll be taking pre-orders for the shirts for a few days. They’re nice Gildan t-shirts in black with the above graphic in white across the chest. I’m ordering these Friday and will have them in a couple of weeks. Drop me a line if you want to pre-order a shirt. ryan AT mnbeer.com
Fear not, if you don’t order now, we’ll still have shirts.
The Heavy Table has a nice write-up on yesterday’s Firkin Fest. Check it out. Also, congrats to Lift Bridge for the gold medal, crowd favorite Farm Girl Kimono. Does anyone recall the full listing of judge and crowd favorites? I was too busy with my nose stuffed in a glass to take notes and my short-term memory went on a holiday.
I have some ideas… more later… drop me a line at ryan AT mnbeer.com. Thanks.
Gang, I removed a post I’d made earlier in the day regarding a series of fund-raising beer tastings to be held in MN and the Dakotas in 2009. I’d learned of the events through a published ad in a publicly available rag, found a site chock-full of information, and decided to share the excitement. I also gathered a bit more information and learned that there are still quite a few details to be worked out with respect to these events. Locations, dates, beer offerings, food vendors and live music are all subject to change and the information available was not complete. I got the okay to leave the post up, but after thinking about it for a while, I decided to pull it back until things have firmed up a bit. That seems to be the prudent thing to do.
But never fear! When details firm up a bit more, we’ll repost information on the event. Sit tight!
We’d previously made mention that Great Waters’ website was given a facelift (well, a complete overhaul actually), thanks to Jeff. Now it appears as though the beer list is being updated with some regularity. Huzzah!!!
Those of you on Brau Bros. e-mail distribution also saw a note from Dustin promising that their site redevelopment was moving along. Huzzah!!!
And Al, how long has Blue Nile been doing the Google slide-show on beer? No matter…Huzzah!!!
Edit: Oh yeah, I fixed our link to The Herkimer from our Brewpubs tab too! Huzzah!!!
Not a “meaty” post, but at least it was enthusiastic. Huzzah!!!
