Posted by on Friday, January 2, 2009 in - 1 comment
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 »

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
Posted by on Friday, December 19, 2008 in - 14 comments
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 …

This really has gotten out of hand. I spent a couple of hours finalizing the entries to the best of my meager abilities and as far as I can tell we have had 524 photos sent in, 186 email threads and about 40 prizes pledged by 30 of the nicest beer folk out there. I have no idea how we are supposed …

Well, I think it is safe to say that as far as Jeff and I are concerned the 2008 Yule, Christmas and Assorted Other Holiday Photo and Yodeling Contest has been insanely successful. With the addition of the latest photo gallery at flicker, there is a total of 388 entries and thirty prize giving …
Day 21: Another 119 Entries and More Fabulous Prizes

To say that the response to the 2008 Yule and Christmas Beer Blog Photo Contest and Pageant... I did mention the pantomime pageant, did I?... has been far greater than expected would be the understatement of the year. We just created another photo set on Flickr for entries submitted between 28 …
