GABF brewers' diaries
Bill Madden
Capitol City Brewing - Sept. 14
I am a little late on my diary. In addition to getting beers out to Denver
the week before last I am also working on our Mid Atlantic Oktoberfest, which is
Oct. 11. We get 5,000 plus people to the event with over 30 breweries. It is alot of
work.
I have also become the CCBC Travel agent and got plane tix and hotel
reservations last week for the four of us going to GABF from the company. This year
there was a company wide competition to increase beer sales volume on each
individual restaurant (Capitol City Brewing Co. has four locations). I get to go
because the VP of Ops said so, the brewer in Baltimore, same; our brewer and a
manager from Capitol Hill actually won the contest. Looking forward to going.
I tasted the trippel and kölsch we sent to GABF yesterday with some
homebrewer friends that are members of BURP, a local homebrew club. I think too much
about what I could have done differently with these beers and have to stop.
There is nothing I can do now.
More later....
