Message-ID: <CAMisXgL=zRRTim88-CBeep=DT-6xBi_vPDQ4o-32DrHvXamB3w@mail.gmail.com>

Hi Poets!  The November meeting will be held this Thursday at New
BelgiumBrewing located at 500
Linden Street in Fort Collins, CO.  The meeting starts at 6:00pm (show up
at 5:30 pm for a tour.)  There will be a handful of New Belgium employees
there that would love to taste your beer and I'd invite everyone to bring
an extra bottle and participate in the tasting panel.  If you've never
participated in our tasting panels before or just tried it once or twice
this meeting is a great opportunity to pick up some constructive feedback
and inspiration from other brewing enthusiasts.  As always our full
calendar of events can be found at:

Also, the club is accepting nominations for next year's board.  If you're a
member with ideas on how to make the local homebrewing scene more awesome
we would love to support you while you make them happen.  The club has
a handful of  named positions as well as some "at large" voting positions.
 If you're interested in running for one of the positions email some or all
of these address below:
lp.president at gmail.com, lp.vicepresident at gmail.com,
lp.eventscoordinator at gmail.com, lp.treasurer at gmail.com

A thorough description of the roles and responsibilities can be found in
our club bylaws located here: http://www.liquidpoets.com/LPbylaws.doc

Those of you who have volunteered to brew beer for our winter party expect
an email shortly so I can make sure your beer (and cost reimbursement) will
happen.  Those of you who would like to brew for the winter party please
send an email to president at liquidpoets.com and I'll let you know if there's
any openings.  Those of you who volunteered to make something in the event
that we're short hopefully I won't be sending you an email but we're
getting down to crunch time and these need to be in the fermenter by the
end of the week!

Sorry for the late notice, but I just heard from Alex at the brewery
that they will have 16 1/2 bbl decommissioned kegs for keggles, etc
available for $10 a pop. A handful are already spoken for from people
who have requested them previously, but the rest are up for grabs -
first to reply, first served.

Let me know if you're interested and I'll put together a list. We
should probably limit it to a maximum of two per person.

Thanks for playing keggle roulette, we have more than enough replies now.

I'll put together a list of names shortly and confirm with people -
make sure you can make it to the meeting tonight and don't forget to
bring cash.

And also, if you asked for multiple shells and are feeling generous
and want to spread the love a bit, let me know. But we also understand
if you're trying to build that killer new system and need everything
you can get.

Just want to say thanks to Kyle for opening up his home (and kitchen) to a handfull of novice mead makers on Saturday.  What a hoot!.  Tried some interesting meads and got to visit with some Poets, old and new.  My mead (Floriday orange blossom) has been fermenting strongly since pitching, thanks to the graduated nutrient addition technique.

Ho Ho Homebrewers!

We're back again, with another present for you - the second annual
Holiday Cheer Christmas Beer competition. This American Homebrewers
Association-sanctioned event will be hosted by BierWerks Brewery in
Woodland Park, CO on Dec. 17, with entries will be accepted for one
category only - 21.B, (Spice, Herb and Vegetable) Christmas/Winter
Specialty Spiced Beer. Judging will be followed by a special brewers
and drinkers holiday party at 6 p.m. at BierWerks.

This contest is open to all amateur brewers. Two bottles of your beer
must be submitted along with the completed entry form and a $5 entry
fee.

Deadline to enter is Dec. 15.

Judging will be made in accordance with AHA and BJCP standards. Prizes

Message-ID: <CAJVgCL=DHLA915d9x-AcXuAAdXYsAks=jZDd+imPqNwfHNxUEg@mail.gmail.com>

All,

Many of you brew beer and have spent-grains and you might not know what to
do with them. Dog-treats, horse-treats, or breads (pizza!) use a few lbs at
best.

Robert From Home Grown Foods <http://www.homegrownfoodcolorado.org/> has a
good solution, better than throwing them in the trash, and asked me to
forward this to the club. Basically you email
compost at homegrownfoodcolorado.org and let them know you have some
spent-grains. They contact you to arrange pickup and then compost the
spent-grains and use them in their gardens. From what I understand the
grains compost quickly and have a fair bit of nitrogen.

Robert came to the February meeting (@Funkwerks) and talked briefly about
their program and handed out business cards (attached). I've heard nothing
but positive things from people that have had their grains picked up.

Thanks,
Kyle

Hi,

Home Grown Food Colorado would like to collect spent grain for composting.
Could you post the attached information?

Thanks,
Robert Howard

I've had a great experience working with Home Grown.  Tara gets our grains,
and she comes to your house on your schedule, brings her own container (or
uses yours if you wish, and always brings it back promptly), and is always
so happy to be helping you out and benefiting from the process.  I'd love
to see her compost pile; I bet it's the most varied, stinky, and productive
pile I've ever seen!  :D

Subject: [Liquidpoets] Liquid Poets December meeting and Winter Party
Message-ID: <CAMisXgKZBGZrOOjU82sxMseBDBUHC6+xbTmtsYRkyD2E=7=8tA@mail.gmail.com>

Hi all!  The next Liquid Poets meeting will be next Thursday, December 1st
at The Mayor Of Old Town located at 632 South Mason Street Fort Collins,
CO.  It's in the building that The Mountain Shop used to be in.  The
meeting will start at 7pm but feel free to stop by earlier and enjoy their
beer selection.  Also, save some room for homebrew.  We'll have the normal
meeting format with pasting panels and the general tasting as well as the
Iron Brewer #15 challenge.  This time around the Iron Brewer judges will be
tasting beers that have been aged on wood other than oak.  We had a few
cans of various non-oak wood chips at the last meeting so if you're
interested in participating but don't have any non-oak wood aged beers
lying around it's definitely not too late to add some wood flavor.  Entry
cost is $5 per beer, winner takes all.

Another big announcement: the annual winter members-only party is coming
up!  This year it will be held at the barn at Rigden Farms 2902 Rigden
Parkway, Fort Collins, CO.  The club will supply a main dish and we're
asking you, the members, to bring a little something to share.  The club
will also be hosting a silent auction with all proceeds going to the
Larimer County Food Bank and members are strongly encouraged to donate
items to be auctioned off.  If you're interested on donating something and
raising money for charity please shoot an email to
president at liquidpoets.comand we'll know to have a label printed and
waiting.  We will also have some
wonderful club members who have volunteered to supply the beer.

As always our full calendar of events can be found at

Have a great weekend and I hope to see you next Thursday!
