I received the following about the Celtic Brew-Off. Files are attached.
WELCOME TO THE CELTIC BREW-OFF
On behalf of the Knights of the Brown Bottle Homebrew Club of Arlington, Texas, I am pleased invite your homebrew club to participate in the 2009 and 13th Annual Celtic Brew-off Homebrew Competition. This is the largest homebrewing competition in the country devoted to exclusively to beer, mead, and cider of Celtic origins. Each year the Knights of the Brown Bottle host the Celtic Brew-Off to coincide with the Texas Scottish Festival and Highland Games held in Arlington each June. Additionally, the Celtic Brew-Off is now the second leg of the Lone Star Circuit of Texas homebrewing competitions.
For this year’s contest, the style guidelines have been expanded giving your club even greater opportunity to see how your homebrewing efforts compare with those of your fellow brewers. Currently the Celtic Brew-Off Website, http://www.celticbrewoff.com is under revision, therefore, I have attached a schedule of events, a Celtic Brew-Off Rules and Registration Package and the Celtic Brew-Off Style guidelines.
The Celtic Brew-Off is open to all brewers and follows Beer Judge Certification Program (BJCP) guidelines. Note that the guidelines have been modified to incorporate styles unique to Celtic Brew-Off. Additionally, if anyone in your club is a judge or would like to learn about judging, they are welcome to participate in the first and second rounds of judging May 23rd in Arlington, Texas. Judges of all levels and experience are welcome. There will be door prizes for participating judges.
Put on your kilts, dust off the bagpipes, and heat up your brew kettles. I invite you and your club to come and join us for the fun and camaraderie of the Celtic Brew-Off. Please pass this to everyone in your club.
Yours aye,
Jamison Kirmser, Director2009 Celtic Brew-Off
