3rd Annual

Cowtown Homebrew Roundup 

Feb 22 - 26, 2011

Wild Rose Brewery

Calgary, Alberta

The beers are all poured, the judges have turned in their scoresheets, and the winners of the 2011 Cowtown Homebrew Roundup are now decided. Congratulations to all the homebrewers that submitted entries -- the quality of the beer, mead, and cider at this year's competition was truly superb!  Given the high quality of homebrew we received, everyone that entered should be proud to be a winning brewer.

The organizing committee would like to thank all of the out-of-town judges that travelled from afar to help make our competition a success. Many thanks to all the local judges, stewards and volunteers that poured a lot of hard work to help make this our best competition yet!  Special thanks to our numerous sponsors for the many generous donations of gifts and prizes.  And of course, our deepest gratitude goes out to the management and staff at Wild Rose Brewery for being such gracious hosts and strong supporters of our club.  Cheers!
