[Liquidpoets] Big Brew 2012

[Nick Chase]

Hey guys,
I just bottled a Kolsh and a Dunkelweizen at 5.5 and 6% respectively.  They're not in kegs but I'd be happy to bring them by.  What time does this start and end?
Cheers

If you haven't been to Big Brew before, you may not know it to be one the funnest things the LP does. Everyone has an awesome time, and we all teach and learn from one another. Some of these guys have 15 and even 20 years of brewing under their belt. Always a good time, and even if you don't brew a batch, feel free to bring a bottle or two of something fun.
I will brew a northern brown tomorrow that should be ready, if a bit young.
This is a perfect way for beginners and new members to get in on the action, so I can certainly find something else to do with this if there are others who want to brew....

For the record, I served a perfectly tasty wit ten days after pitching yeast, and I do believe someone beat that by a few days with a German weizen for those looking for ideas. Mild, Saison, pretty much any ale sub-5% is fair game. (But I will give MAJOR props to the one who can produce a passable lager in three weeks.) 
;-)

So...If you have five gallons of beer ready or will be ready for the event on May 5th and are willing to put it on tap, please let me know.  I will begin putting together a list.  If you bring your recipe in to Hops and Berries, they will give you store credit for the beer you donated!  Also, its not too late to get some nice session beers brewed, so if you want to brew let me know and Hops and Berries will comp your ingredients.
