[COHO] COHO invades Eugene!

[MICHELLE THOMAS]

Greetings all!  COHO is planning a road trip to the other side of the hills in the near future.  A few of us are planning a trip to Eugene in an effort to attend, and participate in, the KLCC Brewfest and Homebrew Competition.  The event takes place on February 9th and 10th and the Lane event Center.  Here's the site with all the details - http://www.klcc.org/<http://www.klcc.org/> .  There's plenty of inexpensive lodging that's really close to the festival, and close to lots of other great beer related places like Rogue, the Bier Stein, and Steelhead.  You can pay $10 to enter a beer in the competition and receive free admission to the beerfest.  All other entries are $5 each.  COHO will be shipping over a group of entries, but need to have them in our possession no later than January 31st.  If anyone's interested give me a shout, and I'll go into explicit detail.

COHO also plans on doing a bulk grain purchase from Valley Vinter & Brew, the homebrew shop that is sponsoring the homebrew competition.  I spoke with them today, and covered prices and availability.  Here's what we have so far -

American 2 row @ $35 for 50#
Dingmann's Belgian pale @ $38 for 50#
British Hugh Baird 2 row @ $49 for 55#
British Crisp 2 row @ $55 for 55#

These are their base prices, and any purchase of more than a couple bags will drop the price significantly according to the shop.  We just need to give them some advanced notice so that they have ample stock to fill our order.  I'm down for three bags of American and a bag of Baird myself, everyone else just needs to let me know as soon as possible please.

Cheers!

Brett
