You guys were swenned! He won the last big prize too. I'm starting to wonder about his relationships to Mr. Beer and Brew Demon and have detectives working on it now. :razz:
Seriously, I was hoping Wisconsin would win as I'm tired of hearing of Duke but it was a good game, especially the first half.
Congrats Swen!!!!!

Thanks all. It was a fun contest. At one point, I was near the bottom. There were so many people within striking distance on any given day.

Received confirmation from BrewDemon regarding prize shipment. That's awesome. I will proudly wear the t-shirt this weekend at the East Nashville Brew Fest if it arrives in time, and likely have my next beer in the new fermenter in the next week or so. I guess I should place an order with BrewDemon to get one of theirs fermenting, but for now it will likely be an AG batch. Of course, I do have one remaining Mr. B extract. Question: would the fermenter explode if Mr. B extracts were introduced into it? :)
