Sunday's beer tasting went off with out a hitch. We had a good turn out and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. I've even heard that it was to buzz of the school bus stop Monday morning.
Props to my co-host, Shawn Dann, (Kathy calls him my Maryland Mike Beaudette). He took care of cooking the pork loins and he also made a great seafood dish in his Big Green Egg. while I did the pouring and kept the sampling going. We ended up with over 20 different beers which made everyone quite happy but no one dared to try the Chelada which was our wild card anyways.
Most guest brought either beer or food but one,(one of the 3 Mikes we had at the tasting) brought a laptop computer and raffle tickets and it went to a lucky winner as a very nice door prize. The company he works at ia updating their systems and instead of stripping them all for parts, he's been re-loading the operating system and putting them back into service. He told me the specs and it's a hell of a lot better than the one I have.
Anyways, Shawn was the winner and I think he earned it. This is something we'll defiantly be doing again, at least until I win my laptop.
