| The Fourteenth Annual
KROC World Brewers Forum™ was perhaps our
best yet (but we always say that).
This year we had three speakers at the event:
Steve Presley, Senior Assistant Brewmaster
for Anheuser-Busch, Inc in Fort Collins,
Colorado; Greg Koch, CEO and
Co-Founder of Stone Brewing Co. in Escondido,
California; and Tony Simmons,
President and Head Brewer of Pagosa Brewing Co.
in Pagosa Springs, Colorado. The theme this year was "Taking
Brewing to New Heights", with the
poster
resembling a Colorado License Plate but was with
respect to homebrewing excellence in the spirit
of Colorado's magnificent 14ers! We had 14 different
homebrews as well as some commercial brews on tap.
Style category 14 is IPA and this beer was
surely on tap. There was a raffle and silent action and prizes
included homebrewing equipment, gift
certificates and more! KROC's
brewers work hard to produce some of the finest
home-brewed beer ever served. This was our
Second Annual WBF Homebrew Competition
which featured India Pale Ales.
A portion of the proceeds from the event went
to The Children's Hospital of Denver.
With RSVP, admission to the event is free,
including beer, food and arm loads of great giveaways.
