If you are a brand new member and haven’t received a shirt yet, contact us.

If you want one of the Dark Side of the Brew shirts (rainbow spectrum, members for $15, non members for $20), then talk to Kim T.
If you want another Lagers 2011 Club Shirt with the beer colors (Christmas is coming soon!), we’ll sell them available for $15.
We need to know by this Friday. The order is going in to Screen Ink this weekend so the shirts will be here by the DecemBEER meeting: Thursday, DecemBEER 1, at the BBQ4U. Be there or be square, man!
I’m in the high-fidelity first class travelling set … I think I need a Lear jet … and a Dark Side shirt…

“The Hair Of The Un-Bitten Dog”
4th Annual Beer Tasting & Competition
and Lincoln Lagers Monthly Meeting
Saturday, October 15th, 2010
5:00 P.M.-????? (Until the cows come home or you go home!!)
330 South 44th St. Lincoln, NE

This years theme is: Wisconsin Breweries

This event will have over 20 commercial craft beers provided by DOGS & SPUDS in addition to a few of my home brews.

Admittance is FREE, but we encourage all of those attending to bring a commercial or home brew beer to share. There will be sausages, soup, bread and cheese provided, but I ask that everyone bring a SIDE DISH to share.

Once again this year we are also going to hold a “Best of Show Competition” between the home brewers. This competition will be based on the people’s choice. Everyone in attendance will have a vote to determine the “Best of Show Winner.” The winner will have their name placed on a traveling trophy and a cash prize of $30 will be awarded.

Additional information is on the Lincoln Lagers Forum. Questions can be addressed to Event Host Ryan Cairns, his number is listed in the forum thread.

See you on the 15th!!!

Nebraska To Invade Des Moines (To Taste Their Beer)

Published June 29, 2011 | By Chriso

The Lincoln Lagers Homebrew Club’s annual bus trip is quickly approaching. On Saturday, July 9th, Lager members and friends will embark on our yearly excursion. This year’s target city: Des Moines, Iowa.

There are two great brewery tours planned for Peace Tree Brewing and Court Avenue Brewing. A stop at El Bait Shop to wet our whistles with their world class tap selection, as well as a stop at Beer Krazy, Des Moines favorite bottle shop/home brew supply store.

We will be meeting up in Lincoln at the Indian Village parking lot on 13th & High Street. The bus leaves at 8am sharp (so be early) and will return around 10pm. Be sure to bring a cooler filled with your favorite home brew/commercial beers to share, a tasting glass, and tasty snacks for the road (lets go easy on the deviled eggs this year).

Are you in Omaha? We have plans to make a stop to pickup/drop off our friends to the East. We are open to the best spot, so drop us a line on our forum if you have a suggestion. The Omaha pickup will be at 9am and drop off around 9pm.

Tickets are on sale through the Lincoln Lagers website www.lincolnlagers.com using PayPal (top two link on the right hand side of the home page.). Tickets are $35 for 2011 paid members and $45 for non-members.

quick tip: You can pay for a 2011 membership on the website under the ‘Members’ menu option, and save the $10 instantly for the bus trip.

Seats are open to the public, and are first come first serve. We will be traveling comfortably on an Arrow Stage Line bus equipped with a rest room and plenty of TV’s tuned to our favorite beer related movies. This is one of the best beer events you will ever experience, and we hope to see you on the bus!

The stops will include:

Brewery tour of Peace Tree Brewing
