Dear Nutjobs*-
First off….THANK YOU!!! The turnout the last few weeks has been amazing and we really appreciate all of the support and patronage. It’s been crazed, frantic, sleepless but most of all a lot of fun. It’s been like trying to drink water from a firehouse, but more apt in our case, it’s been like trying to enjoy an unfiltered Hopfen straight from our fermentation tanks. But hey…we wouldn’t want it any other way. And that’s why we are just nuts enough to announce our very first Urban Chestnut Brewing Company production- Hopfenfest 2011.




What is Hopfenfest 2011 you ask?!
Well it’s…
1) A celebration of the hop.
2) More specifically a celebration of the hop varieties from the Hallertau region of Bavaria.
3) Happening on Sunday, March 27 from 1-4pm.
4) An opportunity to meet actual hop growers of the Hallertau region and join them in formal presentations and informal discussions about their distinctive hop varieties.
5) A platform to demonstrate how the ‘same’ pilsner beer can be significantly altered by simply and ONLY changing its hop bill from batch to batch to batch.
6) An event that will be graced by the presence of the reigning Hallertau Hop Queen (who is also flying over from Bavaria to attend).
7) A party with live music, commemorative glassware and lots of beer; most with Hallertau hops- like Zwickel, Hopfen and several new pilsners, and one without (Winged Nut).
8) A limited engagement, i.e. we are limited in the number of tickets we can sell. We’d like to go big and we’d like to keep it outdoors, but we’ve only got so much room indoors and the weather in March is…the weather in March. Thus, we have to be prepared to move things inside.
9) A $30 per ticket 'UCBC production'. You can buy them on-line or you can buy them in UCBC’s taste room.
10) Something we believe will be a pretty unique, educational, and of course fun, beer festival for the craft beer community of St. Louis.
We hope to see you there!

Prost!
