    At last! Bigfoot emerges from the woods, and with a flourish of his furry mitts, registration is now open for the 2012 National Homebrewers Conference!

    
    What's in store this year? As usual, an all-star cast of speakers will present an extensive slate of seminars. They'll cover everything from attenuation to zymurgy. Have a look at the preliminary conference schedule and the speakers list.

Keynote Speaker Announced

    Of course, we'd be remiss if we didn't mention one of the marquee speakers at this year's conference. Charles Finkel of The Pike Brewing Company will present this year's keynote address! Charles' experience is far-reaching, from  owning a boutique wine shop,  importing  Europe's finest beers in the '70s, producing four books on beer, to?of course?founding Pike in 1989. Expect an interesting perspective on beer and many fun stories.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Summit releases Unchained 09: Dunkel Weizen
Second Unchained release from brewer Eric Blomquist is an authentic Bavarian brew

ST. PAUL, MN ? (Feb. 27, 2012) ? Summit Brewing Company today announces Dunkel Weizen, the ninth beer produced in its limited-time-only Unchained Series. Created by brewer Eric Blomquist, who also crafted the second Unchained beer 90/- Scottish Style Ale, Dunkel Weizen pays tribute to traditional German wheat beers and will be available in draught the week of March 5 and in bottles the week of March 19.

?Dunkel Weizen is a beer Eric has wanted to create for a long time and continues his focus on European-inspired ales,? said Mark Stutrud, founder of Summit Brewing Company. ?Really good fresh examples of this style can be hard to find in the states, but Eric?s beer rises to the occasion.?

The brew is mainly inspired by Blomquist?s dunkel-drinking experience at a sidewalk caf? in Bavaria. A dark, German wheat beer, Dunkel Weizen is made with authentic Bavarian yeast and contains White Wheat, Vienna, Munich, and CaraWheat and other imported malts for body and sweetness. The beer also has more complex and rounded layers of flavor like biscuit, caramel, toffee and chocolate.

 *   Monday, March 5: Stout?s Pub Beer Dinner, 6 p.m.
 *   Tuesday, March 6: Hell?s Kitchen in Minneapolis, 5-8 p.m.
 *   Wednesday, March 7: The Four Firkins in St. Louis Park, 6-8 p.m.
 *   Thursday, March 8: The Hole Sports Lounge in Minneapolis, 7-9 p.m.
 *   Friday, March 9: Burger Jones in Burnsville, 3-4:30 p.m.

Handy Andy Benefit, Homebrew and Label Competitions, Press Release

June 9th, 2012

Harriet Brewing Tap Room

3036 Minnehaha Ave

Minneapolis, Minnesota



Homebrewers of the Twin Cities!  Submit your ales to a competition to  
aid one of your hand-icapped brethren!  The Handy Andy Homebrew and  
Label Competitions will be held over the next few months.  The winners  
will be formally announced at the Handy Andy Benefit on June 9th.



Our deliveryman and overall good guy, Andy Heater, has been struck  
with the great plight of rehabilitating his right hand after an  
unfortunate incident with a glass carboy and a countertop.  After the  
carnage, surgeons were able to reassemble his pinky and ring finger  
and repair the severe nerve damage done to his digits (though much to  
his dismay were unable to fit his arm with a Vader-like replacement  
hand).  This unforeseen incident has left Andy in financially dire  
circumstances and unable to work at his previously madman-like level.  
We intend to lend him a hand.












The Handy Andy Homebrew Competition will consist of the following  
guidelines:

-       Beer must be an Ale ? no lagers, meads, or specialty beers  
like smoked beers or sours

-       Entrants must pick up an entry form from Harriet Brewing and  
submit 2 bottles of each beer and the $10/beer entry fee by April 28th.

-       Midwest Supply is offering a 10% discount to participants who  
bring in an entry form

-       Winners will be notified during the first week of May, and  
formally announced on June 9th at the Handy Andy Benefit.



The Top 3 highest scoring homebrews will win the following:

-       Brew a 10 gallon batch of their beer with Paul Johnston,  
Harriet?s Head Brewer, that will be featured in the Harriet Brewing
