We ended up using a growler rather than a 12oz to give a more rustic feel. I was going for the snake oil wagon product type thing. I think we got it more on the finished product than in the image above. I need to post the final image, but it is on my other laptop.

Do you even get anything for winning? I thought they just put them in the mag and you found out when it came. Doesnt seem like they would contact you unless they were giving you something.

Hey guys.. got a note in the mail saying that my label got the honorable mention award for the contest!! Its gonna be printed in the next issue! They also sent a fleece from Alaskan Brewing Co. (unfortunately its a XL.. and im just a little guy..) but its cool anyway!
Every day is like a mini Christmas at my house. I go home and there is something different, and I still have not gotten official word from the BYO people. SO far I have won the More Beer gift cert, a free beer kit from Brew Organic (Seven Bridges), a Muntons malting fleece, and a 3 foot long Minibrew thermometer with 1/2" threaded end. I have no idea what I could possible use this for since it is so freaking long. It is supposedly intended for wine makers according to the sheet it came with, but I do not make wine. It goes to 250*.
Again, no word from BYO, so I have no idea if this is everything, or if more is still on its way. I may actually call them tomorrow since I am moving out of the house they have as my address next week and want to make sure they know.
What a cool experience.
