Cedar Rapids Brewing Society

Just talked with Matt....and the Beer Fest is ON! They are planning on holding it Father's Day weekend in June....I know how I will be celebrating Father's Day!

So fire up your kettles and let's get some beer going!

We start taking entries sometime in May.

That's the final day of "stay at homebrewcon"

Just talked to Tanner (works at Benz). Guess they are really short staffed right now. I told him when it gets closer to the festival if they need some help with anything to reach out to us. They've always been good to us at Benz, be a good way to show we appreciate them.

He didn't say they are hiring, but they are down 2 employees. I'm sure Matt would be taking applications.

WOO, HOO!!!

I updated the beer app with Benz Fest so go ahead and start entering beers if you know what you're bringing.

Is there a way to add Homebrew Club info to an existing account? I had registered on the app before I was a CRBS member and now I'm unable to add Homebrew Club info to my account.

A quick inventory shows this is what I can have ready for Benz Fest:

Rasberry Lambic -- 1/2 Keg
Blackberry Berliner Weisse -- 1/2 keg

Flanders Golden Ale (sour) -- Full Keg
Flanders Red Ale (sour) -- Full Keg

Red Currant Braggot -- 1/2 Keg
Black Currant Braggot -- 1/2 Keg

Cherry Cider -- Full Keg
Cider -- Full Keg

Cherry Cyser (cherry/apple mead) -- 1/2 Keg
Cyser (apple mead) -- 1/3 Keg

Bochet (caramel) mead -- 1/2 Keg
Lime mead -- 1/3 Keg

Raspberry/Blackberry/Blueberry mead -- 1/2 Keg
Blueberry/Lime mead -- 1/2 Keg

You want me to enter them all into the system or whittle down the list?

I think that we need to give you your own tent and bar with this many beverages to choose from!

Divesh, I added CRBS to your user account on the app. If for some reason that's not what you wanted let me know.

Awesome! Thanks Randy!

To follow up,

How many taps are we planning to run at Benz?

I imagine this will depend upon the space we are allocated to pour (probably the end of the street again) and the number of kegs that we will have to cycle through our taps.

We will know more in a couple of weeks.
