Every month the Borg nominates a member that has been a positive and helpful contributor to the BeerBorg Collective. This is where read about all nominations, elections and the BOTMs themselves
Any member of BeerBorg.com is eligible to be nominated for the Brewer Of The Month.
A member may make one nomination. It is helpful to post why you are making the nomination.
A member may make any number of seconds.
Any member that receives a nomination and second from separate persons will be included in the poll.
A previous BOTM cannot be nominated again until at least one year after the month they were BOTM.
It is in bad taste to nominate or second yourself, but you are free to vote for yourself if you choose. (Don't blame anyone else if you lose by one vote. )
Rather than restrict nominations in some way the number of choices per poll are increased due to the number of nominees. There will be one vote up to 5 nominees, two votes with 6-10, and three votes should more than 10 members ever be nominated.
Since the second most important decision of February was decided on Sunday it is time for us to consider the foremost important decision of the month.
We begin this important process with your well considered nominations for the February 2017 BeerBorg Brewer Of The Month.
Nominations are open through the 8th.
Here are the previous nominees that are not eligible again yet:
I would like to nominate Philm00x. He is continually asking and answering questions in his personal quest to be a better brewer and in turn he helps others.

Thanks for the nomination Berryman, but I respectfully withdraw from consideration. I'm not comfortable with the fanfare that the position entails, all the paparazzi surrounding my limo, having to attend balls, pose for photographs on the red carpet...
