Commander SAAZ Interplanetary Homebrew Blastoff 2009 Funky Fifteen!! |
 |
It’s once again time for the Commander to return from the void of space and host the most fabulous homebrew competition in the know universe! All of the details including the rules and deadlines are posted on the Commander SAAZ page at left. More details on the judging sessions and Splashdown party will be posted as we get closer to the event, but we will once again be at the Holiday Inn Ocean Front on beautiful Cocoa Beach. You can get to the hotel’s website by clicking on the name or you can call them at 321-783-2271 or 1-888-840-8601. The group code should be BCS (Beer Club SAAZ). NOTE: Room reservations must be made by September 9th to ensure this group rate $79.99!
Breaking News!! Not only is Commander SAAZ a qualifying event for Masters Championship of Amateur Brewing (MCAB http://www.masterhomebrewer.org/) , this year Commander SAAZ is also a qualifying event to the 2010 Mazer Cup International Home Competition(http://www.mazercup.com/index.htm). This means that the gold medal winning meads from Commander SAAZ will be inserted directly into the second round at the MCI!! (Last year the Commander SAAZ BOS Mead took a silver medal at the MCI in the Sweet Mead category). So Commander SAAZ is one of only two qualifying competitions to both the most prestigious home beer and mead events in the country!
This year as a special treat the BoS Beer will be brewed commercially by Chris McCall at the Cocoa Beach Brewing Company!!
This is just the beginning of the mayhem ahead!
