George Hummel and Nancy Rigberg, Home Sweet Homebrew, are the organizers while yours truely is the judge coordinator. If you haven't been to Red Bell recently, it's a great place to have a competition and one can sample some excellent beers from the unitanks. Hopefully we'll have a mailing soon to all the judges in the area with more details, map and recommendations for places to stay for those that can travel for the weekend. If you can make it, please reserve this weekend on your schedules.
