In an event that helps to kick off Baltimore Beer Week,
Liam Flynn's Ale House,
BaltiBrew, and the
Free State Homebrew Guild is sponsoring a brewing contest (also open to professional brewers) for beers brewed without hops at all. Entries must use at least 50% malted grains, with anything besides hops--herbs, spices, flowers, botanicals, etc.--used to balance sweetness. Entries must be at least 64 ounces of beer, and be submitted to the Ale House by midnight October 15th. Judging will start at 5 PM on October 20th; one of the judges will be Bruce Williams of Scotland's
Williams Bros. Brewing Co., the creator of the well-renown Fraoch Heather Ale.
Further details to come, when the principals post them online......
