AHA Club Only Competition
By Mark Tumarkin
Following is the report on the last AHA Club Only Competition and the Club Point Totals so far. We need to send in some entries so we can see Hogtown Brewers on the winners list. This works out well because our next BOTY style comp is Porter. Let's send the winner as our club entry for the Porter Comp in March. And think about the upcoming AHA competitions as you plan your upcoming brew sessions.
