May Meeting
This month's meeting was pretty low key. It was at our place ( The Terry's) in Emmett. We had plenty of tasty food and a good variety of beers to sample. Thanks to all who came out. We discussed homebrew fest. The pre-registration opened on May 15th to the 22nd. If you had a spot last year, then this was your window of opportunity to obtain your spot from last year. Then there was a 24 hour window to trade up. On May 25th open camping registration opened. If you didn't camp last year then this is your window to obtain your site. Go to www.mhfsite.com to get started. They have opened up some more spots in a new loop as of yesterday. So just do it, You know you want to. This is a great end to the summer and a great opportunity to meet other brewers and clubs, to expand your brewing trivia and knowledge. We also would like to ask our club members to brew and donate beer for the the festival. Let me know what you would be will to send to the festival. You can message me on face book or email me at ryedup@yahoo.com. We will need a 5 gallon, kegged batch. Also there is a state competition happening in conjunction with the MHF. The Michigan Beer Cup.
