Do you have anymore of the old ale left? I actually voted that as my BOS winner. Quite excellent

Congrat's Don!

I noticed no guests for the party for entering. Are winners allowed a guest?

Way to go Chris!
How about bringing some of that Hibiscus Metheglin to the meeting next Tuesday?
We could do a club tasting of some of the O.C.Fair winners beers.
I'll bring some of my Hemp Ale.
Scott B. any of your Costa Del Sol left?
Scott K. Can you bring some of that winning mead?
Brad W. Barleywine!, Barleywine!, Barleywine!
Who did I miss?

Cream Ale is gone, and the only barleywine I have left is the club barrel-aged version, while the one I entered was my leftover of the non-barrel version...

If I make it next week, I do intend to bring some Saison, which I hope will win at the IEBC :-)

Congrats to everyone!

I assume I'll see a number of you folks at the party tomorrow... I'll be showing up in a brewcommune shirt, of course.

If you guys grab a table and you haven't seen me arrive yet, save me a seat.

Had a great time at the O.C. Fair Beer Tasting Party
The keg of Hemp Ale started to run dry right when the party was over.

That was a really nice event. :) I wasn't expecting such a great spread of food, and professional beers from Newport Brewing Co. and Steelhead! Plus some tasty homebrew being walked around and shared.

All for the cost of an entry to the homebrew competition! :)
