Hi Keith,
Thanks so much for submitting an entry to the 2015 Garrison Home Brew-Off. This year was a record year with 84 entries! Judging is well on its way and we should know the final 4 very soon. In the meantime I wanted to reach out to you to confirm you will be attending the gala.

As part of your entry fee this year you get one commentary entry to the gala on March 5th doors open at 7pm and the awards ceremony starts at 7:30pm. As you can guess with the number of entries and judges if everyone comes to the gala that will put our room at capacity!

We have started a waiting list for members of the public who wish to purchase a ticket and attend. If you plan on attending the gala please RSVP via email by Monday March 2, 2015 this way we can allow people on the waiting list to purchase a ticket if numbers allow.

We hope to see you there Keith it will be a great night!
Cheers,

Justin Zinck

Good job guys. :cheers:
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

70 entries, and how many of those were Brewnosers, maybe 10? there's a lot of brewers around who aren't in the Brewnosers. I didn't realize that.
