While the suggestions have been absolutely streaming in for the first beer blog contest of 2009, I have been trying to figure out what the subject should be. What will capture the moment? Worry no longer as I have made the call - I have decided that I want a photo or other depiction of your …
Swag-a-palooza '09: Pick Your Own Beer Contest Rules!
Posted by on Saturday, May 30, 2009 in - 4 comments
I am too lazy these days. Once, as an aspiring beer blogger, I would think up themes for contests on the slightest whim, pound the gift sources mercilessly and then pass it all on to you, the actual beer drinking public. Now, I wait by the door for cheques and love letters that never come, think …

Here's the thing. I have a vision for the Yule 2009 Beer Blog Photo Contest. Last year we had about 43 prizes and 524 entries. I think we can hit over 100 prizes and maybe 1500 entries. At least. Why not? Why not 200 hundred gifts...or a zillion for that matter. It could happen. Well, it could if …

There. It is done. To say that the Yule 2008 Beer Blog Photo Contest and Rodeo was not a startling success would be an utter and complete lie. You would have to be a fibber of the highest degree to suggest that. Frankly, one peep like that and I send in the Daleks - and not the draught serving …

Dramatic Update: Using that scientific method and applying higher mathematics (meaning I used my counting skills) it appears we have more prizes than photos. So, two pictures have been added to the final round of giftings - making now for 21...22 - and more counting is planned. We may still … read more »
Prizes #11 To #21: Beer Blog Yule / Xmas 2008 Photo Contest

There has to be a better way to do this. Jeff is still hauling casks around the cellar. And last night here it turned into a party of the local beer club - aka the guys from work that I am training to like good beer. Today was loaded up with things like digging out from a blizzard as we await …
First Wave Of Prizes For 2008 Yule Beer Blog Photos

Let's see if I can make this work. I have decided that announcing all the prizes at once is such a daunting task that I can't ever fit it in now that the holiday nuttiness is getting...nuttier. Also, I have to figure out how to do this HTML table thing. If I have it all oging out at once and can't …
