Minutes from Bull Falls Brewers Meeting January 13, 2005


Great food, great company, and great beer. I think everyone at the dinner last night would agree. It was great to see some of the spouses that we do not get to see on a regular basis again.

As agreed in December we would have an update on the competition and nominations of officers.

Mike Roman initiated conversation regarding the competition.

Mike Zamzow made a motion to continue with the competition with each club making a group brew (a large batch of beer made by many members of the club with a portion of this batch used for judging) the style to be determined at a later date, and individual brews also (one per person) to be judged on a people choice basis.

Joanne seconded it and the motion was passed.

An idea for how the style would be picked is to put the style names in a hat and the one drawn out would be the style used.

The Polar Brew is being held this year on February 19 starting at 10am on Sunset Lake in Amherst Junction.

The nominations for the February election were made last night. They are as follows:

President:
Mark Strehlow
Bill Flood

Secretary:
Jen Seliger
Joanne Flood

Treasurer:
Brett Dahnke
Brian Frost

Good luck to all!
Here is an update on the topics for the coming months.

February – Bock Beer
March – Motorizing you mill and grain crushing
April – Mash Tun design and usage
May – Beer and Food
For those of you who couldn't make it last evening, we postponed the raffle until the February meeting. Everyone has a chance to take something home. See you at the next meeting -- February 10.
