As some of you will know, this is an annual event that BrewNosers have attended in the past. This year, there is no competition, so no beers to be sent off, or judging points available.

I just got the following email from the CABA President:
Greetings Members,

I want to give you some good news. March-in-Montreal 2012 is set for Saturday, March 31. We will start the day at 9:30 AM at Benelux on Sherbrooke ouest. You may recall that we meet there in 2007. We will have sign-in and coffee and pastry from 9:30 AM to 10:00 AM and then start our conference. The morning will consist of a technical presentation about beer colour given by Michel Gauthier.

After the presentation we will have lunch (including a beverage) and at 1:00 PM we will board a deluxe bus for visits and tours of:
La Succursale, petite brasserie du vieux-Rosement, Brasseurs Du monde and Le Bilboquet. Beer samples will be included at these stops.

We will return to Benelux at 6:00 PM. All of this for $65 for CABA members and $75 for non-members.

I had planned to write you earlier, when the event announcement appeared on our website. Unfortunately we had some technical problems and after taking a few reservations (via the PayPal button) the website malfunctioned and informed those trying to register that the event was sold out. This was an error. The website is up and running and is accepting registrations.

Visit http://www.homebrewers.ca" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; to register via PayPal.

Good brewing,
Steve Hodos
CABA President
I will probably be going. Not sure if I am flying or driving or taking the train.
