First Thursday Out: August 4, 2011

I'm sending a reminder for the August First Thursday Out (FTO) tonight at the Archuleta County Fair. We'll hang out around the beer tent from 5 to 7 pm this evening and swap beer tales...or at least have a brew or two and talk about how the beer competition went this morning. Come join us at the fairgrounds (near the intersection of U.S. 84 and U.S. 160) tonight and grab a funnel cake at the fair while you're at it!

Beer / Wine / Mead Entries Due In Tomorrow (the 3rd)

Hi all,

Just a reminder that if you are going to be cool enough to enter some fun fermentables into the county fair that it needs to be done tomorrow, the 3rd. All you need to do is take a look at the BJCP guidelines (which can be found in the fair booklet or here: http://www.bjcp.org/docs/2008_Guidelines.pdf) and determine which category your entry is, then head down to the county extension office at the fairgrounds tomorrow between 1:00 and 8:00pm. It only takes one bottle and does not cost anything. 

Remember, not only will you get some great feedback on your brew and have an opportunity to win a few dollars (and bragging rights), but if you win you could have an opportunity to brew a Pro-Am beer with Tony at Pagosa Brewing Co.

Cheers, and hope to see your entries!
