February Meeting Postponed
Sorry, but the February meeting has been postponed due to obviousness. I'll post information on a rescheduled date, just as soon as we figure out what's in store for us next. As always, leave your snide comments for me at the bottom of this post.

FEBRUARY MEETING
The February meeting will be back at Dogfish Head Brewings & Eats on Thursday, February 11th. It's $6 pizza nite, so come for dinner and enjoy the ensuing stupidity. Everything will start promptly at 7pm in the upstairs dining room. Late arriving attendees will have to wait for the first television time-out before they will be escorted to their seats-they will then be ridiculed and flogged with wet noodles by the members who showed up on-time.
Topics of discussion will be the upcoming Mad Brewers Competition, as well as a slew of upcoming classes/events at Delmarva Brewing Craft/Xtreme Brewing. As many folks know, DFH has been closed for a few weeks for renovations. If this latest snow event has caused a delay in their re-opening, I will let everyone know via email and this wonderful blog where the gathering will take place. So check back here for any updates....and leave a comment, so I don't feel like I'm wasting precious beer-drinking time updating this damn blog!
Blizzardfully Yours,

JANUARY MEETING, AND BEYOND..........
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
Just a friendly reminder that the January meeting of DUH will take place on January 14th at Dogfish Head Brewings & Eats in Rehoboth Beach. As usual, things will get started in the 2nd floor dining room around 7pm. Bring your latest fermented creations, or just come out and sample the efforts of your fellow homebrewers/wine-makers/meadists. Thursday is $6 pizza night at Dogfish Head, so come out for dinner and some laughs. The Dogfish Head pub will be closing on January 19th for a 3-week renovation, so this is the last pizza night until mid-February. I suggest you get off the couch and get to this meeting!
Next on the agenda, the 7th Annual Chili Cook-off at the Shipwreck Brewing Company lounge, deep in the woods of Lewes Delaware. See the post directly below this rambling mess for more information about the Novosel's annual shindig.
Tentatively scheduled for that same afternoon (January 23), myself and club president Jim Kroon will be doing an in-studio interview on WGMD (92.7fm). We'll be discussing the joys of homebrewing, as well as promoting our wonderful little community of misfits we call DUH. Tune in, call in or just sit on your couch performing shadow-puppet shows like you usually do on Saturday night.
Finally, we are bringing back the Delmarva United Homebrewers brewing competition. Details are being worked out, but the scheduled date of judging is April 25th. Keep your eyes glued here for more details. Doesn't everyone have this page set as their homepage?
That's all for now. Thanks for taking the time to read this drivel. Now go back to whatever you were doing before you became so completely bored that you ended up on this page.
Simply yours,
Dead Terry

7th Annual Chili Cookoff
Saturday, January 23rd.
Get ready to party in the Shipwreck Pub at John and Linda Novosel's. Bring your best chili if you want to compete for bragging rights and to get your name on the infamous "pink piggy" for Best Chili. Everyone gets to judge the top 3 chilis. If you are not bringing chili, any appetizer to share would be greatly appreciated! Drinking and appetizers start at 6 pm, and tasting of chili starts promptly at 7 pm. Please bring your chili in a crockpot with a small serving spoon. Don't bother to bring any condiments for the chili since we only use 2 oz. tasting cups--your chili has to stand on its own!
Also, feel free to bring any homebrews you want to share!
Directions: From route 24 and route 1 (McDonald's and Exxon), proceed west on route 24 about four miles to Peddler's Village. Then go one more mile on route 24 to the light. Turn right on Robinsonville Road for 1/4 mile. Turn left at the church-Conley's Chapel Road and go 1/4 mile to 32043 Conley Chapel. Driveway is on the right between two large stone walls. We are deep in the woods--you cannot see the house or pub from the street.
