Brewing with the Big Dogs!
Your IPA brew was brilliant
It stood on its own resilient
Surrounded by big-dog beer
No falter, your mission clear
The contest was a big test
Proud was your stand with the best
Determined you followed your heart
Diligent, careful and smart
Your choice to make IPA
Was iffy but you never swayed
On that first thought you settled
Not letting people mettle
When the judge called you out of the crowd
The applause was long and loud
People's Award for second place
You did it girl...you made your case!
My daughter entered her first home-brew competition and took second place in the People's Choice Award last weekend! For those who are unfamiliar, IPA is an India Pale Ale brew.

Post a CommentGreat, I love it!
Wow - congrats!
Cool! A couple friends of mine are into home brew... they made an interesting batch over Christmas...
Wow, now she's who I'm inviting to my next BYOB bash.
You should have brewed beer, Cathy. Then your daughter could have sung, "I was a Beer-Meister's Daughter." IPA is one of the best - light, yet hoppy. Tasty and refreshing...
That is great. Congratulations to her!
Wow, that's neat.We had some home brew at our Super bowl party, not too keen on dark beer, but I do love pale ale.
This is fantastic! Congratulations, Danielle!
Congrats to her for placing.
