November 1st, 2012: The U.S. Presidential Race isn’t the only election to follow! Today voting gets underway in our Benefit Brew Project.
There are 10 worthy causes in the running to have a special beer released in their honour with full proceeds donated to the cause, and they’re all looking for your vote! Have your voice heard by voting at www.phillipsbeer.com/benefitbrew on which beer you’d like to see us make. Votes can be submitted once/day until Nov. 18th and the winner will be announced on December 1st!! Good luck to everyone! The finalists (in no particular order) are: Music BC Foundation |
vote, vote, vote!
This being the political season, we are writing to you to urge you to vote — not just for the candidates clamoring for public office, but for something even more important: beer!
Don’t delay, as our deadline is Saturday, November 10, at 12:00 noon PST. Remember, only one vote per category is allowed. This is your contest; Northwest Brewing News staff is not eligible to vote. Voter ID or proof of citizenship is not required!
The winners will be announced in our December-January issue, and a special Readers’ Choice Awards Reception for the Best in the Northwest will be held Sunday, December 9, at Yaletown Brewing Company in Vancouver, B.C. The event will take place from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m., and all Northwest craft beer lovers are invited to attend. Don’t miss it!
Cheers,

the humanity!
as a lark i put not very good photos up of my beer-related tattoos
on the craftbeer.com website
and thought nothing further of it
(stupid things i do while bored at work…)
and now, they’ve chosen 32 of the top pics submitted
(which thankfully both of my submissions are part of – my pics/tattoos weren’t the worst)
and are asking people to vote for their favourites
in order to come up with a top ten list
and i’m losing
fairly badly
how shameful
how humiliating
how annoying dammit!
