Let's Drink my Beer @ Hailstorm

Hey all - Hailstorm tapped our GABF Pro-Am beer (a super sessionable dank APA) this past Friday and not to pat myself on the shoulder, but I think it turned out really well. 

Jim V. and myself (along with some other friends and family) are heading down to Hailstorm next Sunday, 8/26 around 2pm to sample it some more so everyone else should come too (while there you can probably drink a Vlad release and the 2017 GABF Gold medal winning IPA, Prarie Madness as well!).

Forums: 

Empirical is planning to hold another homebrew club fest at their tap room in November and have asked us to join them. Here are the details they sent:

WHEN: November 17th, 1-5pm

WHERE: Empirical Brewery

WHO: The 9 clubs we had at Thunderdome, two more clubs if possible and an independent group

WHAT: Beer Fest and Best of Show competition / Star Wars Party / Costume Contest

Clubs are allowed to bring as many light and dark beers as you want, but please bring an even number of light and dark beers. This makes the competition more fun.

Ravenswood On Tap Volunteer Openings

Forums: 

I received an email from the event coordinator for Ravenswood On Tap, which takes place on June 23 and 24. If you'd like to help out please see below.

 

Thanks for your interest in helping out at On Tap! We had a rush on beer pouring sign ups and thankfully have all those slots filled. We still need help in two areas: collecting gate donations, and assisting our Keg Crew, which basically means using hand-trucks to deliver kegs to our brewer’s tents (aka the life-blood of the fest)!

 

free ticket - Craft Beer at LP Zoo - Saturday

Forums: 

Hey-O

I've got an extra ticket for the Saturday session of the Craft Beer Festival at Lincoln Park.

That's this saturday: 6/16 from 6-10:30 

The catch is you have to come bro-down* with me @the fest

AJ 

*'bro-down' is gender neutral, and will consist of drinking local-ish craft-ish (almost certianly not rare) beers and looking at zoo animals, most likely while immitaing voices for them
