Hi Fellow PALE ALES brewers:
I'm traveling to Philly tomorrow late afternoon to participate in this
year's invitation-only Extreme Homebrew Challenge event at Jose
Pistola's on 263 S. 15th Street, Philadelphia, PA 19102. Competition
is limited to winners of last fall's HOPS (Homebrewers of Philadelphia
and Suburbs) competition. Since this is an "extreme" homebrew
challenge, I took the brown ale many of us crafted on Big Brew Day
and jazzed it up with some buckwheat honey & vanilla. Quite a rich
taste!
I'd be delighted if any of you could come and cheer me on in this
competition. Competition is from 7-10 pm. Winner gets selected by
Dogfish Head to be brewed at their facility for the fall Pro-Am
Competition. Keeping my wort hoses crossed. :)
Here are a couple of links to the competition.
