WHAT: AMERICAN HOMEBREWERS ASSOCIATION (AHA) MEMBERSHIP RALLY

WHERE: IRON HILL BREWERY & RESTAURANT ON THE RIVERFRONT IN WILMINGTON

WHEN: FRIDAY, AUGUST 8TH FROM 6PM - 9PM


THE EVENT: The AHA, in cooperation with Iron Hill Brewery, Dogfish Head Craft Brewery, Stewart's Brewing Company and Twin Lakes Brewing Company, is sponsoring a membership drive at Iron Hill Brewery & Restaurant in Wilmington, Delaware.

Only AHA members may participate in the rally. Current members can renew their membership for $33 (instead of the current $38). Non-members may join the AHA at the rally and participate. As an added incentive, Dogfish Head will donate hats to any first-time, on-the-spot sign ups!

Each brewery will be donating some draft reserve beer. Only AHA members can get these beers. The beers will be $3 per pint, and all of the proceeds from these sales will be split between the 2 Delaware brew clubs ( DUH & First State Brewers)! There will also be some light food available to members.

If the weather cooperates, Iron Hill will set up two bocce games on the back lawn of the restaurant, and homebrewers can team up with Delaware's brewers for some great fun!

Hope to see everyone there! If you need more information, drop me a note and I'll do my best to answer correctly.

NOVEMBER MEETING CHANGE OF VENUE

Due to a scheduling conflict with our friends at Dogfish Head in Rehoboth Beach, the November meeting has been moved to John & Linda Novosel's Shipwreck Brewing in Lewes. The date remains the same - Thursday, November 8th. Arrive anytime after 6pm.

We'll have burgers and hot dogs. If you would like to bring a dish to share, it would be appreciated but it is by no means required. If you need directions or more information, drop me a note (or post a follow-up here) and I'll get you the information you need.

Sorry for the late notice, and the late update....but Punkin' Chunkin' sucked up a lot of my time recently. Now it's done and I'm exhausted....and ready to start building next year's monstrosity!

Hope to see everyone on Thursday (Yes, THIS Thursday)!

Peace-OUT!

OCTOBER MEETING - THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11TH

This will be quick since I have stuff to do, I don't feel well and therefore my 'skills' are compromised. The October meeting will be held Thursday October 11th at 7pm. We'll be meeting back at Dogfish Head in Rehoboth Beach. It's pizza night, so come in for dinner and hang out for the meeting/tasting.
Hope to see everyone there!

Peace-OUT!

*Ok Mike, you can now shred me with your commentary.....

SEPTEMBER MEETING

The September meeting will be held on Thursday, September 13th at Anne Marie & Mike Townshend's house in Dover. Events will start after 6pm. Feel free to bring a dish to share, or a sample of your latest liquid creation....but neither is required to attend.....just a good attitude and a spirit of friendship...and if you can't muster that? Show up and keep your mouth shut!

With luck on our side, we'll start having our monthly meetings back at Dogfish Head Brewings & Eats in beautiful, parking meter-free Rehoboth Beach by October 11th (the next club meeting).

I need to update the club email list, since I've finally upgraded my computer. I think the best way to purge the club list of all the dead-ends is to force folks who still want to be on the list to send me their email addresses. I know who the 'hard-core' members are....but I've got loads of names of people who get on the list, but never get involved. Very soon, I'll be sending out a message to folks on the list. If I don't get a response, I'll purge your address from the list. If you want to continue to get my meandering drivel....just send me a reply....nothing difficult....just say something like "keep me on the list" or "count me in" or "Dead Terry is an IDIOT!". Whatever works for you.

'Nuff Sed!

Peas OUT!!

July Meeting

I guess Terry gave up on posting the meeting announcements. However, I look at it this way... Since I started using this blog again we have doubled our readership.

The meeting is tonight, July 12 is at Doug and Patty's, home of the Delmarva Brewing Craft in Millsboro.

Bring beer, bring food, or just bring yourself.

Hi Terry

Looks like you were getting lonely. I had forgotten how to get into this damn thing so I had to get the blogger folk to send me login information.

Since this is a beer thing I guess I should mention something about that wonderful stuff...

Things I have tried lately...
Brooklyn Local 1 - Pretty good but I don't see what all the fuss is about.

Aventinus (2002) - Now this stuff was amazing, very rich. Could be one of my new favorites.

Russian River Damnation - Had this at Monk's last Friday, good, hoppier then I was expecting.

St. Benardus 12 - also at monks. First time I have had this on tap.

That's all for now. See you all on Thursday at Doug's
