2010 Great American Beer Festival

by dbmanager Friday October 1, 2010 @ 21:32 PM

We got back from the 2010 Great American Beer Festival (GABF) two weeks ago and brought back the Gold! Actually 2 golds and two bronzes. We received medals in the following categories:

Gold medal in International-style Pilsner for "Gold Leaf Lager" (second year in a row). One of our house beers.

Gold medal in Coffee Flavored beer for "Baltic Coffee". Last spring we won a bronze in Coffee Flavored Beer at the 2010 World Beer Cup. Both times we used locally roasted Trager Brothers coffee from Lovingston, VA (Nelson County)! Check out their coffee http://www.tbcroasters.com/.

Bronze medal in South German-style Hefeweizen for "Wintergreen Weiss". One of our house beers.

Bronze medal in English-style Mild for "Ale of Fergus". We opened the restaurant with Ale of Fergus. It has been our most brewed seasonal beer having returned 5-6 times so far. Nice to see it get the props it deserves, especially it being a session beer, aka low alcohol.

So far in less than two years being open we have accumulated 8 Great American Beer Festival medals and 4 World Beer Cup medals and the World Beer Cup Champion Brewery & Brewer award for the small brewpub category. Not bad for a brewery located in the sticks! Three out of our four year round house beers have medaled at GABF, one twice.

Big thanks goes out to Aaron Reilly our assistant brewer, without whom we could not have achieved so much. Also thanks must be giving to the Crandall's who have created an environment in which this could have been done. The whole staff here at DBBC also helped create the environment which good beer can be brewed and enjoyed, a big thanks to you all. Thanks to the local breweries on the Brew Ridge Trail http://brewridgetrail.com/ who have been wonderful neighbors, especially Mark Thompson and crew at Starr Hill who have been like a big brother to us and who's brewery acted as a drop off point for GABF festival beers & entries.

I also want to thank our patrons, local and afar. You are the reason we are here. Thanks for drinking our beer.

Best,

Jason

Body Rail and Semi-Monocoque: The chassis beneath all Class A motorhomes today begins out as a fundamental Frame Rail, as the picture above shows. 99% of all RV producers will take the essential body rail chassis and incorporate cross braces and bridge-like development within the backside half of the chassis, so the power lies not in the slim middle of the frame, but throughout its weight distribution.
