CAMRA
BC 2009 |
A big thank-you to all the brewers who participated in this year’s amateur brewers competition! The judges all agreed that the overall quality of the beers entered were the best we’ve ever had! On top of that, we had a significant increase in the number of entries over last year. Well done!
A very big thank-you to all the volunteers, judges,
stewards and others who helped the event run smoothly.
As a way to say “thank-you” and to celebrate, both
CAMRA Victoria and CAMRA Vancouver will host an “awards night” to hand out
prizes and ribbons. Keep your eyes on this site and watch the CAMRA email list
