The QVxNF collaboration is back for year 2 and we’re pumped!
First, lets all sit back, crack a beer and look at how far the craft beer scene has come in just one year. 2019 was the greatest year for craft beer in Newfoundland and Labrador to date and we expect big things from 2020. With several more breweries opening what better way to start the year than with the launch of 4 new cans in the QVxNF series.
The format will be similar to last year:
Brew 1 beer, any style and submit 12 x 341 ml bottles (or equal volume) between October 1st – 4th, 2019 to Quidi Vidi Brewery, along with a hard copy of your recipe. You may brew with friends.
On Sunday, October 6th at 12:00 pm we’ll shut down the tap room for a private bottle share and judging, please arrange a ride ????. You can still submit a beer and be eligible to win if you cannot make the October 6th event.
We will announce 4 winners the following week. Throughout the fall the winners will come to QV to brew their beer on our pilot system. The finished cans and custom art will launch early 2020 with at least 160 barrels. The beer will be available right across Newfoundland and Labrador. The format will be a mixed 4 pack of 473 ml cans, single cans may be available at a later date.
Submit your intent to participate by e-mailing newfermenters@gmail.com with QVxNF in the subject line. Please include your basic contact information. (Name, Address, Phone, and email)
I know many of you have probably thought of, or are in the process of opening your own breweries. I would love to have you come down and give it your best on our system before you go pro on your own.
Good luck to everyone and see you all October 6th!
