Need the AH community's support
« on: October 29, 2012, 03:03:17 PM »
Howdy Bandits,

We need some help with a bracket tournament that we have entered into that puts handcrafted beers against each other.  It is a fun deal, but it
also has some serious publicity attached to it.  Now we are the underdogs, seeded last in the bracket so we are up against the #1 seeded brewery.  They
have thousands of followers and even though we make a dang good beer, we are getting hammered.  Of course these things come down to popularity and
those who can rally the most support, so here I am pitching to you guys for your support as the voting is 10 votes for 1 beer per IP address.  Your vote is needed for the Huebert beers.
Win or lose I plan on bringing several cases of high-point beer to the next convention to show my appreciation and to catch up with all of you.  Thanks again, for your
help.  Here is the link for the first round voting.  http://blog.newsok.com/thirstybeagle/

Check six,

Drex

Yea it's pretty good.  It is our seasonal beer we made for the holidays. Thanks for the vote.  Looks like we have moved the needle a tad bit which is amazing.  We are at 33% vs 66% now. And you are right, first round on this bracket we just have the Chocolate Mint Stout it seems.

I think I voted the max 10 times  :headscratch:
I hit vote, then when it gave me the results I reloaded the page and voted again  :rofl

yep, that is the way to do it.  Well we pushed it up to 42%, but then got hit hard.  Back down to 34% with 1 hour and 30 minutes to go left in the voting.  You guys made a great surge for us and I thank you!

You got my vote(s).

Hardly seems fair though,IMHO, Stout vs. Wheat & Porter vs. IPA.
I am not a fan of Stout, i do like a good rasberry wheat. Porters aren't bad, but i am an IPA Guy (India & Imperial).

mmmmmmMAD ELF finally came out, oh the joy.


Best of Luck to ya.

Thanks!  Yes, the pairings are a little rough.  They have been voiced, but not much we can do except try to make a good showing.  :cheers:
