Well it’s that time of year again where the Tribes will gather in Patapsco State Park on June 1 to celebrate the summer and great summer beers (like blood orange Wit). We will have a wheat beer competition with cash prizes.
There is no charge for the gathering but there is a small fee to enter the park (I think $2 per person). We are at the Hollofield Area Shelter 300.
The park has a pack-in pack-out policy so if you can help the organizers by taking a bag of rubbish away, it’s a huge help.
What To Bring
- Beer
- Non-alcoholic Beverages
- Some Food to share including hot dogs, appetizers, finger foods and salad.
- Chairs or a blanket
- Outdoor games (kid friendly) …no lawn darts at least no sharp ones
- The Guild will provide rolls, ice and charcoal.
Wheat Beer Competition
American Wheat 6d, German Wheat 15a,15b,15c, or Belgian Wit 16a will be
accepted. The Competition will be pseudo-hedonistic, you will need enough beer
to fill one pitcher and you your entry will be judged by a few members of the
picnic (4-5 volunteers will be selected). The entry fee is $2.00 per beer. You
may enter as many beers as you would like. The top three wheat beers will win
prize money.
First Place – $50.00
Second Place – $25.00
