Recipe for Disaster - Wort Rally

[daryl]

HOW TO SUBMIT:
Register your brews on the herokuapp; as of today (June 13) only 6 out of 20-some entrants have registered their brews. If they are not registered on the herokuapp, I will not know how many brews you are submitting and your entry might get missed - and that would be a disaster. So please, at your earliest convenience and before this Thursday's membership meeting, post your entries on the herokuapp (accurate in the number of entries) - if you want to change the name later, as long as the title matches what you have your label when you submit, we will be good. I just need an accurate count to give to Lion Bridge so they can schedule their evaluation sessions.

The format/process for submitting the Recipe for Disaster entries will be the same as how we submit samples for our quarterly Club competitions.

So you will use two non-descript 12 oz bottles and bottle caps to provide two samples for Lion Bridge to evaluate. You can find a link to the "bottle ID form", a PDF, that you can use to create your labels. Attach them to your bottles with a rubber band.

WHEN TO SUBMIT:
I will begin taking bottles at this weeks' membership meeting. I can take submissions after that, I'll submit a schedule as to where and when you can bring them to me - most likely I'll park myself at Lion Bridge, Turner Alley, Iowa Brewing, or Bricks for an hour in the evening; have a beer, and collect entries. I will post that as soon as I get a cut-off date from Quinton.

Submitting two bottles will allow Lion Bridge to do staggered evaluations; there will be several days of evaluation on the first pass. And then at least one more day of evaluations for the second pass. The results of which (not rankings necessarily, but winners/honorable mentions/etc - LB is taking this on) will be shared at the Pour Event on June 26th.

Post or PM questions or concerns.

Important question #1: will entries be stored refrigerated?

I may have to go through the very annoying process of bottle-pasteurization if not (better safe than sorry).

So I was pretty sure earlier that I fucked this one up, and just sampled it after carbonating in the keg, and yep, what I brewed is not a particularly pleasant beer to drink. For some strange reason, I still have my pride, so I am not inflicting my fuck-up on unsuspecting strangers. If I'm feeling particularly sadistic, I may bring a sample to Thursday's meeting.

I confirmed with Quinton that LB will be refrigerating the entries.

Once they are in my possession, at the end of the evening, they will either be in my fridge or dropped off and stored at LB.

Thanks Daryl.

Can we cut to the chase and just meet @ LB @ 6PM on Thursday for a direct drop off?

[UndeadFred]

I will have to drop off some with you Daryl early next week. I can take them to you at your building. The second should be carbed up and ready early next week. They are still a little green but we will go with it. I am planning on coming to the meeting tonight but I might not as I'm a little off today. But I couldn't pull it together last night.

Presuming that my experimentation doesn't cause anyone to use a spit cup at out meeting (it didn't!),
is there someone (preferably NE CR / Marion area) with whom I could drop off a few growlers later on to take to the Event? I'll be out of town that weekend.

Is entry into the pre judge competition a requirement to pour at the happy hour?

No.

And I am going to need to craft a new post on in this topic so we can track how many beers will be judged and how many beers will be poured.

I'll try to have something up by tonight...stating the next turn in dates (I am thinking Sunday the 19th evening at LB and maybe Wed the 22nd evening at LB), but I need to consult my calendar at home first.

More info soon....

Ok so how do I register my beers? I'm not seeing a place to create a login.

Go to crbeernuts.herokuapp.com and create an account. And then you can enter beers for specific events; in this case Recipe for Disaster.

I will be at Lion Bridge tonight to receive your Recipe for Disaster entries and quaff a couple of Quinton's brews.

I should get there by 6:30 PM and will pack in around 7:30 or so. I'll be on the patio, weather and seating availability permitting.

Let me know if you would like to submit at the Festival Planning Meeting, to be held this Tuesday...and I can come prepared.

And there will be one more opportunity to submit...probably Wed evening....I will post on this Forum Topic as I better know my schedule.

Uh, not going to drink very much between 6:30 and 6:30 I imagine.
