Tiffany wins Bockfest Homebrew Competition!

Huge congrats to Hive13 member Tiffany Bell-Horwath for winning the 2014 Moerlein Special Release Bock Award at the Bockfest Homebrew Competition on Saturday!!!

Next year, Christian Moerlein will be brewing a commercial version of her beer as the 2014 release of Schoenling Bock.

She’s the first female to win the award and it was also the first time she’d submitted a beer at Bockfest.

Here’s a cellphone pic I took of Tiffany and Michael right after she found out (and got her medal).

Tiffany said she’d be willing to bring a growler of the award-winning beer to the meeting tomorrow night, and Lindsey and I will bring a growler of (not award winning) cream ale. We thought it’d be a great idea for any other Hive13 homebrewers to bring some of yours to share as well.

See you tomorrow!

I knew Hive13 had some good brewers - but this is amazing!

I don’t think it was luck, congrats!

Fantastic! Congrats!

Wait, I have to wait another year for my own keg? Boo

What?? No way! That is fantastic!!! We will have to have a celebration at the hive when it gets on the market!

Very cool! Way to go Tiffany!
