Hi Everyone,
I will be brewing Saturday and Sunday this weekend to get ready for the Snowmass Beer and Chili Fest. I'll be starting about noon each day. Swing by 939 Wheel Circle in Bonedale and say "Hi" and help clean carboys. (Just kidding)
I have 3 beers on tap at the moment - some leftover DIPA, a nice easy-drinking Amber, and the monster "Darth Cheney's Imperial Stout" which clocks in at about 14.5% and pushed with nitrogen.

UPDATE: Brewing went well - kinda. Did 5 gallons of Quick and Easy Lemon Wheat on Saturday. Had some issues with volumes again, but think it'll turn out OK. I was hurting a bit on Sunday but was able to get 10 gallons of APA out. Used Summit and Amarillo - yummy!
I'm regestering for the Beer and Chili fest today.

May Meeting at the Aspen Brewing Company
The May meeting is fast approaching, and now I'm excited to announce a new venue for this month. We'll be meeting at the new Aspen Brewing Company. For those of you who don't know, the Aspen Brewing Company has been open since St. Patty's Day, and has been serving some great beers. They've invited us all up to sample some beer, and share some of our own while checking out theri new place. Because of the extra travel involved for many of us, we're going to make this meeting start at 5:30PM, and go until they kick us out. If you can't make it by 5:30, just show up when you can, I'm sure there will be more than enough beer to go around.
The brewery is located at 557 N. Mill Street in Aspen. To get there take the highway into Aspen, and turn North at the light next to the Hotel Jerome. The brewery is on the left before you get to the bridge, right accross the street from Clark's Market. Of course there is the wonderful RAFTA transit system close by that can safely transport you to and from Aspen. Hope to see you all there.
We are still short on the needed money to get the tap station finished, and desperately need your help in order to get it complete for the Snowmass festival and all the other events we have coming up. If you haven't donated yet please help us out. You can bring money to a meeting, You can send money through PayPal to me at jwjeep@lycos.com. You can also send money through snail mail to me at my home. My address is 1937 Acacia Avenue, Rifle CO 81650. Make sure to send it before the postage rates go up another penny!
We are coming down to making some decisions on out Homebrewers Ball charity benefit for this year, and have some exciting news to share. We have narrowed the selection down to a short list of 3. We also have a line on a couple of venues, one of which sounds almost too good to be true. We are going to be voting on the charity and venue at the meeting, so that's one more reason to attend. If you can't make the meeting and want some input, e-mail me your vote for the charity of your choice at jwjeep@lycos.com. Please e-mail me no later than Wednesday the 14th so that we can make a decision and get things rolling. The short list of charities we are speaking to are:
Slow Food Roaring Fork:

There are also a couple of new names and e-mail addresses in the list. They are Jim Neu and Scott Hemmen, who have been attending the last couple of meetings, and just hadn't been added yet. Duncan Clauss is also being added to the list. Duncan is one of the owners of the Aspen Brewing Company, and we're happy to have him involved.
