.....AND WE'RE BACK!

Well, we survived the summer months here on the Delmarva peninsula somewhat intact. We had some great get-togethers throughout the summer......saw some folks that only get a chance to pop in every once-in-a-while, as well as some new faces who are just discovering the joys of homebrewing/wine-making/mead-ing (?). In short, summer was great! NOW, it's time to get down to business.
OCTOBER 12th.....We'll be meeting back at Dogfish Head Brewings & Eats @7pm. Pizza nite is in full swing, so come and eat and have a drink before the meeting starts. We've got plenty of items to discuss, as well as beer/wine/mead/???? to taste. Some folks have expressed an interest in getting some written feedback on their beers (etc.), so we'll try to set-up some kind of organized tasting at each meeting with simple scoring sheets for members to score the beers (etc.) that are shared at the meeting. I'll bring the scoring sheets. All I ask is......if you have a beer (etc.) that you want members to taste and give written reviews on, try to notify before the meeting (via email) so I know how much sheet to bring that night, or get to the meeting an hour before it starts (when I usually arrive) and let me know you want to use scoring sheets. I hope this will avoid the chaos that sometimes (usually) occurs when we start pouring. We'll give it a shot and see how it goes.
MORE IMPORTANT STUFF......We're working on a competiton in conjunction with the First State Brewers. I will be looking for feedback and ideas from members for me to pass along to the folks upstate, plus we can discuss our own club-only competition.

THAT'S ALL FOR NOW! No TV and No Beer make Homer go crazy.........

PEACE-OUT!
