Samuel Adams Homebrew Competition

This is old news by now, but there’s still enough time to enter. Samuel Adams is holding a homebrew competition. Entries must be received between February 15, 2006 at 9:00 AM and March 15, 2006 at 5:00 PM.

The winners in each of the twenty-three categories gets a Samuel Adams varsity jacket. Nine semi-finalists will receive $2000 travel vouchers to go to the 2006 Great American Beer Festival or the 2006 American Homebrewers Association National Homebrewers Conference. The Grand Champion will win a trip to Boston to brew the winning beer. If the winning beer is brought to market, then the winner will get a one-time $1000 royalty payment. (In all honesty, it sounds like it’s better to be a semi-finalist than the Grand Champion, considering the loss of rights to your beer.)

Make sure you read the rules, as there are very detailed requirements.

Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed - Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, 'It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver.
