How will you celebrate? On April 10, 1933, Michigan became the first state to ratify the 21st Amendment, which repealed the prohibition of alcohol. http://www.mlive.com/news/index.ssf/2012/04/today_in_michigan_history_a_th.html

Historians estimate 75 percent of the alcohol consumed in the U.S. during Prohibition came through Detroit.

Beer Travel / Alaska Tour in the Planning Stages

« on: October 07, 2011, 09:25:04 AM »

For our 40th anniversary, my wife and I are planning an Alaska Cruise/Tour on one side or the other of the NHC.
Any suggestions? Breweries/brewpubs that are a must see? Other things to make sure we don't miss?

General Homebrew Discussion / Thank You AHA

« on: June 08, 2011, 02:54:34 PM »

For the work you do behind the scenes. Michigan, and several other states, are having some fair use law issues.
The get the word to your rep message.

Dear AHA, Brewers Association and Support Your Local Brewery Members,

The AHA is supporting an effort by Michigan homebrewers to pass legislation that would allow homebrewers to serve homebrew at meetings held at Michigan breweries. We need your help getting this bill passed.

Current Michigan regulations prohibit the serving of homebrew for any purpose at microbreweries or brewpubs. House Bill 4061, sponsored by homebrewer Representative Doug Geiss, would allow homebrew to be served at licensed Michigan breweries for activities such as club meetings and competitions. . . .

Doug responded

Quote

From Rep. Doug Giess:

Committee hearing went very well today. I expect the bill to be voted out of committee next week. Getting these commitments from members is very useful. Members have been getting messages/phone calls from AHA members, so the push from you was worthwhile.

-Doug

We are not there yet, but we are closer. Again thanks to the AHA who initiated this action.

This IS one of your member benefits.
