 It’s
time again for the Central Florida Home Brewer’s spectacular annual
Pontoon Trip up the famous Saint Johns River. This year’s event
will be a total blast because we will have two boats filled with
Homebrewers and beer.
The
trip is on Saturday, August 28th
with a ship-off dock time of 10:30. We will work our way north on
the Saint Johns and hit Blue Springs for a Barbeque, some fun in the
sun, volleyball, Frisbee and snorkeling in the clear blue waters
around 11:30 or so. Those who are driving to the springs need to
arrive early, as the park is known to fill up and close by 10:00am!
We will probably leave the Park and boat our way back by 3:00 or so.
Cost
Per Person for Boat Trip and Barbeque: $30 - RSVP to events@cfhb.org
First
20 people only will be on the boat – We are checking on a 3rd
boat though.
Park and barbeque is still available for $8pp if you drive to the Springs yourself. Get there early to make sure you can get in.
See below for location and information.

2010 Meadllennium Individual Medal Results
|
MEADLLENNIUM 2010 is done. It was another great year for mead. Once again, we expanded the “Other Fruit Melomel” (25C) category to award medals for Dry, Semi-Sweet and Sweet, in the category.
Every year, the judges are surprised by the quality of these meads. The vast majority of the meads scored at least 33 points and there were many that were in the 40 point range. Nobody loves a good mead more than the judges, and it was a pleasant task finding the best of the best. A special “Thanks” to all that entered, especially our out-of-town entrants. The judges always enjoy tasting different localities honeys and meads. You are the reason we have Meadllennium! Again, the Alliance of Sommeliers provided their special lead-crystal wine glasses for us to evaluate your meads. For this, we are very grateful. Thanks, too, to all that helped with judging, stewarding, registering, tabulating and paperwork. A special thanks to the Hardy's for letting us use their charming house in the beautiful countryside.
