Favor to ask..

#1 Post by cyburai » Mon Mar 24, 2008 11:55 am

Sherry's church (the UFL) is having a fund raising auction this weekend, and I promised to bring some homebrew for a tasting.

I am also offering to show someone how to make beer as an auction item.

Here's the problem; I am low on anything but stouts. Is anyone willing to offer up a growler of homebrew for samples, and to show how good homebrew can be?

I'd like to take 3-4 gallons of homebrew, in addition to the beers that I have on hand.

Hoppy, Steam, Lager, etc.

Either call or email if you are willing. Thanks in advance.

Don't have plans to be in town this week. Maybe my daughter will be though, I'll spot you a growler or two. Or if someone else will be around Prairie Village heading west...... Lemme know.

It looks like I have 3-4 gallons. Thanks to DJ, meisel, brick, and shane. Andy, don't sweat it.

Dan, let me know if I need to meet your daughter someplace to get yours.

Otherwise I will get ahold of everyone to swing by and pick up the donations by Saturday morning.

Thanks to you all. I'd take more if anyone else were offering.

If you have a cap for a growler, or an empty PET bottle (I have a carbinator cap) I'd donate to the cause.

Sean,
Brick dropped off 2 growlers at my house this morning. They are in my big white fridge behind the bar...

Cheers!

Thanks to Shane, Brick, DJ in KC, and Meisel. And all those that offered.

The auction to show you how to make beer and be able to drink the results (basically I'd show you how to use my system and make a 5 gal batch of beer on it) raised $120 for charity.

I was pretty impressed. Now if I could actually get $120 out of 5 g of beer. I'd be in business!
