News:

 

 

 

· We’re planning to arrange a tour of the Yuengling Brewery, probably in the June time frame. There are two options—one is to hold the tour in place of a regular BEERS meeting on a first Tuesday. The other is to have the tour as an extra event apart from a regular meeting night. Majority vote will decide, go to the Yahoo group and see the poll section to cast your vote.

 

· Bob Sylvester has graciously offered to let the club use his brewing equipment at St. Somewhere Brewing Company to do a club big brew. We may look to do something we could age in a 50 gallon bourbon barrel. A committee has been formed from within the club to work on details.

 

· We had 4 club members take the BJCP exam in Late March. Once the grades are back we’re looking to four new recognized judges!

 

· Remaining 2008 competitions in the Florida Circuit:

Pictured on the right is a photo of the trophy awarded to the club with the most winning entries in the Coconut Cup competition in Miami. That last nameplate on the left column now has “T.B. BEERS 08” engraved on it! 

 

This trophy dates back to 1998, and it has never before been won by any club other than the two located in the Miami metro area—The Ft Lauderdale Area Brewers and the Miami Area Society of Homebrewers.

 

Way to go Tampa Bay BEERS!
