Woooo Hooooo!

I made the finals for the 2011 Beer Drinker of the Year competition sponsored by Wynkoop Brewery.  I will be heading to Denver in February to compete “head-to-head” to see who takes home the prize.  This is the announcement I received (I took the other names out … I wasn’t sure if I should post them or not):

“Hello 2011 Beerdrinker of the Year entrants,

Our panel of experts has counted up the votes for the 2011 Finals.

The ten semifinalists are —- —–, James Clark, —– —–, —– —–, —– —–, —– —–, —– —–, —– —–, —– —– and —– —–.

Congratulations! Seven of you will receive a lovely 2011 Beerdrinker of the Year Semifinalist shirt.   It’s a very fashionable piece of garb and an ultimate beer conversation starter.

Three of you will receive a Finalist shirt and be flown to Denver to compete in the Finals. Those three esteemed folks are James Clark, —– —– and —– —–.

Congrats to you three. We’ll see you in Denver soon.

Thank you all for entering this year’s search, and thanks for doing your mighty part for spreading the wonders of great beer in your communities.

This is exciting!  I’m looking forward to the trip… not to mention that Wynkoop’s is on the “125 Places to Drink Beer” list … Yeah!
