Celtic Brew-Off Invitation

Slainte Mhath! (Good Health)
       On behalf of the Knights of the Brown Bottle Homebrew Club of Arlington, Texas, We invite you to participate in the annual Celtic Brew-Off Homebrew Competition.  This year will mark the “CRYSTAL ANNIVERSARY” of the Celtic Brew-Off and the Knight’s goal is to make 2011 the best to date.  The Celtic Brew-Off is the largest homebrewing competition in the country devoted exclusively to beers, meads, and ciders with origins in Celtic nations of the world.  In 2010 the Celtic received over 300 entries and 2011 looks to be even larger.  
      Entries will be accepted from Friday May 6th through Thursday May 12th.  First and second round judging will be held May 21st and 22nd at the Coor’s Distribution Center in north Fort Worth.   Judges and stewards of all levels and experience are welcome.    A light lunch will be provided and there will be door prizes for those participating in the judging.  As in years past, the 2011 Celtic Brew-Off will conclude at the Texas Scottish Festival and Highland Games in Arlington held the first weekend in June.
       New for 2011 will be 15th Anniversary Commemorative Trophies given to the first place and BOS winning entrants.  Second and third place winners will receive custom ribbons made with Celtic tartan.  Style guidelines, contest rules and on-line registration may be found on the Celtic Brew-Off link at www.kobb.org.   
Cheers,
Richard Graham and Dave Girard, Co-directors
2011 Celtic Brew-Off
