A little early for me to make this post you say? Well theres a reason for that...
I decided that for my 5000th post, rather than follow the unmentionable HBT tradition (not my thing...), I want to give back to the forum and pay tribute to my love of craft beer at the same time.
I experienced my first craft beer in Colorado while I was stationed there with the Army. As a member of the Army Special Forces, I learned a lot from the Green Berets I served alongside, but the best lesson they taught me was to DRINK GOOD BEER! Most of them (and myself in short time), had served in Germany and other European countries where beer had always been an awesome thing, but luckily for me, craft beer was exploding in Colorado in the late 90s while I was there. Because of that, I was quickly introduced to beers which would change my palate forever, and even more importantly, lead to my passion for homebrewing.
So, for my 5000th post, I will give 1 Supporting Membership (1 year), to the person who sends me the best Colorado picture as chosen via poll by the members of this forum. All you have to do to enter is send me your best picture of Colorado. Tell me where and when it was taken. Extra consideration will be given to pictures which are beer themed, and extra-SPECIAL consideration will be given to any pictures which pay tribute to the military in some way. I will choose my five favorites to put in the poll, which will then be voted on by everyone. The only people who are excluded are Lifetime Members, for obvious reasons. Pictures can be emailed to me at [email protected]. Please DO NOT post pictures in this thread (Well, submissions at least (Any pictures posted in this thread are automatically disqualified).
There will be no set timeline for this contest. I will post the poll as my 5000th post. So when I start getting too close, I will cut it off and put up the poll.
Thank you for continuing to put up with me on this great forum
, the place which has taught me a good chunk of all I know about brewing our favorite beverage! I look forward to seeing all your great pictures of one of my favorite places in the world!
One more thing. PLEASE, no cheating. Be honest and proud of the experiences YOU enjoyed in the great state of Colorado, not someone elses.
Cheers!
