This is a reminder that we'll have our January meeting at the Happy Gnome at 7pm, Tuesday the 5th.  As the Upper Mississippi Mashout registration is now open, we'll do a short tutorial on how to enter.  We'll also use this as a chance to give/get advice on any beers you are unsure about or need to decide which category or subcategory to enter.  

If you're not familiar with BJCP style guidelines yet, you might want to look through before the meeting:
