Remember there are no dues, no rules and free peanuts! Oh, I forgot there is one rule.. Please, no smoking at the tasting table and we also request a $1.00 or $2.00 tip for the Sud’s staff to clean up after us. Just leave it on the table. Cheers!!!

Home-Brew Dispensing System

Problem:
There are 6500 people coming to your club’s Oktoberfest event, and they want to taste three dozen beers—in just 6 hours.

Solution:
Facing that predicament in Charlotte, N.C., avid home-brewer Tony Profera designed “Junior,” a portable 11-tap draft dispenser that accommodates rolling carts, so kegs can be swapped out quickly and easily.

Spring Brew Fest 2008 - Review

Spring Brew Fest 2008

Friday - May 23rd


First off, thanks Chuck and Brew and Grow from Rockford. They had many beers and wines to sample and did a great job serving the masses. Also in attendance with beers: Mark, Trent, Chris, Ryan, and Steve. Thanks to the family and friends that showed up and help us, Fest. We had a no show for the beer distributors. That sucks. We did have a nice stream of people most of the night as far as I remember….. Also thanks to whoever cleaned up. I was kind of unaware of things at the end of the night…
