Default Sam Adams Brewing Contest

Sam Adams is having a pretty cool contest, just saw one of their commercials promoting it. They are having a home brewing contest, called the "Longshot Homebrew Contest" urging everyone to brew their own special batch of beer. They're going to pick a group of "Champions" who will be featured in the 2008 Longshot Mix Six pack. Then, from what I understand a Grand Champion will be selected and that brew will be featured on tap at Gillette Stadium for the 2008 football season.

I'd need to get a few more batches under my belt before doing something like this. It is a really cool thing they've got going though.

That's a pretty awesome idea.
