All this talk about COTY... :)

I started digging through my club’s old Bier Notes and found a few of the issues around when they won Club of the Year in 2000.

Check out how nonchalantly they organize what beers people should brew:

And then the party after they won:

Anyway, I just get a kick out of these old newsletters. :slight_smile: Thought I would share. We used to have some epic speakers for our annual competition too… Charlie P. came in 2003 and Ken Schramm came in 2009. Reading about the past is like a who’s who of the homebrewing greats, pretty entertaining.

PS: KC Bier Meisters is my club for those on Tapatalk.

Awesome. I love archival stuff too.

I gotta get them to start up again with the Bier Notes. It’s such a great way to preserve history.

I think my favorite one is the very first one in May 1983, before they even had a name. It was just called “Beer Club”.  8)
