Little woody? 9/12 at the park next to McMinimans, Volunteers will be updated as to specific details, anyone not going to Hop Maddness, this should be a great event. COHO has two beers for the little woody both are stouts one is on rum and the other is on wiskey
SMASH competition - Club only competition (Single Malt & Single Hop) multiple yeast okay, fruit not okay, doctoring malt, smoking, etc. okay - Extract okay, but limited to that extract as your single malt (21st)
