Now, you have to be an AHA member to vote, but if you're not already you should join. The reasons to be a member keep increasing, and not the least of which is the annual AHA National Homebrewers Conference in June. It's in Orlando this year, so come on down and have a beer with us. You can register for the Conference at www.beertown.org/events/hbc/index.html Sorry, that's not the point of this email, but I couldn't help myself. To vote, you can photocopy the ballot in the March-April issue of Zymurgy, or go to www.beertown.org/homebrewing/election.html and vote online. In either case, voting ends April 1st - and no, that's not part of some elaborate April Fools joke, but it is just a few weeks away. So go grab a homebrew, read the candidates statements, and vote for the four of your choice. We've got a great group of candidates again this year. Choose the ones that you think will help guide the AHA as you'd like. There are two further reasons to vote now - you can then renew your membership at a special discounted rate of $29 (a savings of $9), and you will get an additional entry in the Lallamande Scholarship drawing for the two-week Concise Course at the Siebel Institute. The drawing will be held at during the Awards Dinner at the National Homebrew Conference (June 22-24), just had to mention that again. thanks, and come on down, Mark Tumarkin Chairman AHA Governing Committee Hogtown Brewers Gainesville, FL ______________ ______________ ______________ ______________ Webmail provided by InfoToGo.net ---------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Lemcke, Keith Date: Thu, 16 Mar 2006 15:01:05 -0500 Subject: Master of Beer Styles course Greetings from Montreal! Our 4-day Master of Beer Styles & Evaluation program is starting on April 3rd, and if any BJCP members need more information on the course, please feel free to drop me a line at klemcke`at`siebelinstitute.com, or check out our web site at http://www.siebelinstitute.com/course_desc/master_styles.html. It is an excellent course for those who have never gone through a sensory analysis training session, and for those who want to improve their skills in analyzing the characteristics of the major beer styles. Ray Daniels & Randy Mosher pull out all the stops to make this an immensely informative & entertaining course. In case you didn't know, Chicago is also one of America's great beer cities. The brewpubs & micros feature some of the nation's most adventurous and talented brewers, and beer bars like the Map Room, Delilah's and the Hopleaf showcase an amazing selection of domestic & imported beer. Thanks, and I hope we will see you in Chicago!
