MICHAEL SWAN: THIS JUST IN >>>

The Puyallup Fair Media Center sent this to us:

Puyallup, WA â€" Aug. 4, 2009 â€" The Puyallup Fair welcomes amateur brewers and winemakers to compete and showcase their own home brews and creations for a chance to win prizes. Winning entries will be on display for the duration of the Fair, Sept. 11-27 in the west side of the Americraft ShowPlex.

Entries may be submitted on Saturday, Aug. 22 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. only, and will be received inside the grounds through the Red Gate area on 9th Ave. SW. Entries will be judged on Aug. 30.

Both beer and wine will be judged based upon a variety of criteria such as aroma, body, clarity, color, drinkability, flavor, method, and overall impression. Categories are based on type of beer and wine. All hobbyists must have no affiliation, past or present, with a commercial brewery or winery.

Judges will determine a Best in Show from First Place winners. A cash prize is given to First, Second, and Best in Show standings.
