Hey, the nice people from Wiley publications sent me four copies of Beer School: Bottling Success at the Brooklyn Brewer and three of them are for you. With any luck this will be more exciting than the ship contest, more like the photo contest though I can do without a repeat of Mr. Bitter who didn't like the decision...though I note he wrote in the wee small hours. The CD contest was pretty good too but the contest for that beer ship just died. Probably every had just got their own beer ship for Christmas.
So here is the deal - what is the contest to be? We need a contest that can have a first, second and third place winner. The person who makes up the contest likely has not a bad chance to win it, come to think of it. So cook the books and hire your uncle - it's time to unlevel that playing field. You have until Friday to let us know or I make something up or maybe just sell them on eBay.

I think they should go to the owners of three most popular Canadian beer blogs besides AGBB. ;)

Hmmm...but only 25% of my readers are Canadian...

When I win, you can send my copy to one of the owners of one of the three most popular Canadian beer blogs besides AGBB! :)

Hmmm...is that a plot or a trend?

Most persistant business card spammer?

Most frequent contributors in February? (I'd like a copy, too!)

The three bottles of beer you would want if stranded on a desert island and why.

Who was that Andy, what a yutz!!!
Make it ART. Such as, oh I dunno, which one of us could make the best beer stein? Or you know, a watercolor painting of dogs drinking beer and playing poker. Or a ballpoint pen on a napkin to make an abstract...
Yeah, a Beer and Art (made by yourself!) contest!

Failing that brilliant idea, Paul's is very good.
Alan - January 31, 2007 1:54 PM
Paul's is looking like a winner. Gary's, by comparison, looks like me suggesting the best term for a draft will making reference to brewing equipment.

In my quest for two copies of the book I submit the contest should require a maximum of 200 words on:
"How beer saved my life".

Or perhaps even:
The best ghost written episode of McGivor where the unconventional use of a bottle of craft brewed beer plays a pivotal role in delivering our hero from certain death.

Why stop there, Paul? How about the bottle of craft brewed beer paired with INDISPENSIBLE Swiss army knife, with OPENER?????
I tell ya, Paul is a genius.
That guy Andy eats worms for breakfast. Phhhlllbbbtttt!

Finish the joke:
How many lawyers does it take to open a bottle of beer?
tim - January 31, 2007 7:13 PM
best beer recipe.
Jacquelyn Keller - January 31, 2007 10:40 PM
How about a design a beer label contest?
Knut Albert - February 1, 2007 3:08 AM
Paul's proposal is the one to go for IMHO.
