Monthly Archives: November 2009

The next monthly meeting will take place at the home of Kim Theesen & Anita Jackson on Saturday, Decembeer 5, 1008 S. 32nd Street, 32nd and E.
The 6 o’clock meeting will feature the 2009 edition of the Lincoln Lager Challenge. Entries must be submitted by 6 o’clock (we’ll be ready by 5) with the comp starting shortly thereafter. Regular meeting, homebrew tasting, and general frivolity commence at 7 pm. And, yes, THE game will be on the tube. (Can we still call that squawk box a tube?)
Additional discussion and Challenge rules are in the forum. See you Saturday!

Lincoln Lager Jason McLaughlin took first place honors in the Brewers’ Choice of the Winter Warmer Beer Quest at Lazlo’s on Novembeer 15. Jason’s delicious chocolate stout also was BOS in the preliminary judging. Bob Catherall took fourth with his yummy espresso sweet stout. Complete results are posted above and related discussions are on the forum. The next Beer Quest will be “session ales” in February.
