HELP! THE BREW FEST REALLY NEEDS VOLUNTEERS!
We still need lots of responsible persons (21 and over) to pour beer and
help out at the Brew Fest on April 6th, so be sure to volunteer and also
round up some of your friends. It's really fun to pour and be a part of
the action, and when the festival is over, the volunteers get to drink the
remaining beers and eat pizza! There is also a free t-shirt and other
goodies in it for you. We also need people to help do hand stamps at the
door, run the registration booths out front, and dump the dump
buckets. Volunteers should be serious about following our rules, not
drinking until the fest is over, and pouring 2 oz. samples!
IMPORTANT VOLUNTEER MEETING: Thursday, April 4th, 8 PM to 9 PM upstairs at
Wild Wing Cafe (Washington Street, downtown Athens). Please do your very
best to attend if you'd like to volunteer. If you can't make it to the
April 4th meeting, but would still like to volunteer, please be present in
the downstairs exhibit hall of the Classic Center by 11:30 am SHARP on
April 6th for the MANDATORY meeting for ALL volunteers -- we can get you
set up then. Please reply to this email or call Owen at 706-254-BREW if you
have any questions. Otherwise, just come to a meeting. Thanks.
REAL ALE IN LONDON, UK
At the beginning of March Owen led some friends to a real ale pub tour of
London. We saw all the sights and tasted some of the freshest
cask-conditioned ale we'd ever had. What is cask ale? How did we find the
best pubs? Just how bad was it when the Young's Ale dray horse blew his
nose on Erin's jacket? Find out all these answers by clicking on...

NAME THAT BEER BOTTLE
Check out this fun game that will test your ability to identify different
beer bottles from their shape and color alone. Are you up to the challenge?
