2010 Beerku Contest Winner Announced

Monday, July 12th, 2010

Sagebrush Classic fans submitted so many wonderful beerkus this year, it was difficult to choose just one winner.

This year’s winner is Rachel:

Pour the twilight ale
Breath in the warm wind of night
Summer has begun

Hmm, a twilight ale is sounding pretty good right about now, thanks to Rachel’s lovely poem.

Check out all the top entries at Portland Food and Drink.com.

One of my favorites is by Brian:

Miss Spelt, Not Miss Spelled
She, a thirst quenching temptress
Please don’t tell my wife.

Thanks to the Food Dude for running a great beerku contest, and thanks to everyone who entered this year!

2010 Beerku Contest Begins!

Tuesday, June 15th, 2010

Last year, people loved the Beerku Contest so much, we’re bringing it back again. The first-place winner will receive a pair of tickets to the Sagebrush Classic Feast. You can enter now at Portland Food and Drink.com. The contest will close July 8. To be eligible, the haiku must follow thee traditional form – 5 syllables, 7 syllables, 5 syllables. They must make some reference to beer, though not specifically about Deschutes. Good luck everyone!
