The 4th Annual Lagerpalooza

It's time to start getting your lager recipes ready because the 4th Annual Lagerpalooza will be here before you know it. If you're not familiar; Lagerpalooza is Utah preeminent home brew competition designed to showcase that art of lagering beer.

Home brewers enter their beers to be judged by qualified industry and BJCP judges. The "Best of Show" beer will be brewed and packaged by the Bohemian Brewery and will be the featured beer for the next Lagerpaloozer. Last year's Best of Show was a pre-prohibition style lager that will be made available as a Pro/Am beer for all to enjoy.

Registration is open now, the judging and festivities will happen on Sunday, May 6th. All of the information for participants can be found at this link. I hope to see you there.

Cheers!

Bohemian's Pro/Am Lagerpalooza IPL

Yesterday, I gave you some info on Lagerpalooza, Utah's preeminent lagered home brew competition. In that story I told you about Bohemian Brewing Company's plan to package and sell last year's winning beer Lagerpalooza entry. Today, I have a preview of this new beer.

This Pro/Am beer was brewed by home brewer, Don Robinson. It's an India Pale Lager that has an American citrus hop profile. The lagering will give the beer a nice clean feel on the tongue. 6.0% ABV - 60 IBUs. This beer will debut at the Lagerpalooza party at noon on Sunday, May 7th. It will be packaged in 12 ounce cans. Can't wait to try your IPL, Don!

Also today, We're down to our final four beer in the Low Point Utah Beer Challenge. Shades of Pale's Grapefruit Revolution goes up against Uinta's Baba Schwatrzbier and Epic's Sour IPA challenges RedRock's IPA Junior. These beers are all quite different, it could be anyone game. Please share the beer bracket love!

Voting ends Saturday morning. The finals will begin Monday morning. Good luck!

Prost!

Lagerpalooza 2017

It's time again for Lagerpalooza Utah's premier home brew competition that focuses on the art of lagering beer. This year, organizers have added a public event to go along with the actual competition. The Bohemian Brewery will be opening up their back lot for a food and drinking area where the public can enjoy not only the regular Bohemian fair, but also try the winning recipe from last years Lagerpalooza winner. This beer will also be canned by Bohemian and sold at the brewery.

Lagerpalooza also coincides with the National Homebrew Day and the Lauterday Brewers Home Brew Club will be there for the Big Brew event. The public can take tours of the Bohemian, but also see how home brewers accomplish the same thing on a much smaller scale. 

This will probably be the biggest event in the area to celebrate National Homebrew Day - a real fusion of the amateur and professional brewers coming together to celebrate making beer. 

If you have a lagered beer that you'd like to enter, there's still time. You have until April 30th. Here's the info page.
