Augusta Bottoms Beer Fest

We're back from the Augusta Bottoms Beer Festival. A slightly chilly but successful event in gorgeous Augusta, MO. The event is hosted by the gracious crew at Augusta Brewing and the proceeds went to H.I.S. K.I.D.S, a group that supports families dealing with childhood cancer.

For those who were there, we appreciate everyone's positive comments. The best compliment, of course, is returning with empty kegs!

We were pouring Oktoberfest, Indian Brown Ale, Pumpkin Ale, a cask of APA dry-hopped with simcoe hops and we were also pouring what may have been the final few pints of American IPA. The pumpkin disappeared first followed closely by the IPA.

It's always good to meet with our fellow Missouri brewers and share some pints with Missouri beer fans.

Mark your calendar for next year. We'll be there, will you?

Fine Day In Augusta

The 6th annual Agusta Bottom's Beer Festival kicked off with near-perfect weather. Sunshine and not too warm. Schalfly was among the many participating brewers pouring at the event, including the Garage Brewers a group of dedicated and talented home brewers.

For those who were able to make the trip and joined us for a glass or two, we thank you as do our fellow brewers and H.I.S. K.I.D.S., a charitable organization helping kids which benefits from the event.

We should have some photos up on the blog soon.

Hello to all who stopped by the table to say hello.
