[Liquid Poets President]

Hey Poets,



Our next LP meeting will be at Anheuser-Busch on Thursday, July 11th.  As
Alison mentioned in her email a couple of weeks ago, this meeting is going
to be very different than most meetings. Here are the details per Alison’s
email:

* *

*About 50 of us will be able to do a 2-hour tour of the brewing process, if
you are able to get there by 6pm.  Those who are not able to come early or
who just want to meet as usual can come at 7pm, and they will have a
meeting space for us to taste each other's beers until 9pm.*

* *

*RSVPs are required for the tour, due to their rules, so please reply to me
(events at liquidpoets.com) with the names of the people who will be
attending.  I'll need to get them the list of names the week before the
meeting, so please RSVP by July 4th.*

* *

*There are some special requirements about attire, as spelled out below:*

* *

*"VERY important...no shorts or skirts, no jewelry of any kind, and people
MUST wear closed-toe, non-heel shoes. We will not allow anyone on the tour
in improper attire. We'll provide everyone with a hat, safety glasses and
earplugs. We will be in many areas of our process that we do not allow the
public tour to go, so everybody needs to be very clear on our requirements
for their own safety. They will also want a light jacket/fleece for their
comfort in our fermenting, aging and finishing cellars."*

*            *

*Also, due to TTB laws, no beer brought into the brewery can leave the
premises.  We will be able to take home our empty bottles, so don't worry
about that.  But any beer remaining in the bottles must be dumped out
before we leave.*





1) Due to time constraints we will not be doing a formal tasting panel this
month.  If you want to hang out in the tasting area and create your own
tasting panel that is okay, but I strongly encourage you to do the tour if
you can.  This is a great opportunity to see how the big brewers do it!


2) The style of the month for July was going to be Bohemian Pilsner (2B),
but due to the unusual format of this meeting we are not going to examine
this style at this meeting, and instead will push it back to our meeting in
August.


3) Congrats to all the winners <http://liquidpoets.com/2013/06/14/r/> of
the Liquid Poetry Slam and Muse Cup!  The competition was a big success.
Major thanks to the all sponsors and everyone who volunteered!



Cheers!

Matt
