OK, now that we have all marveled at the grumpy man, we have two last announcements. Tonight, we wind up the most part of the remaining prizes - each a glory to behold - while we will finish off in a grand finale with the best of the best announced Tuesday night eastern North American time. Then it will be done...except for the 43 or so emails, each to a prize pledger and a prize winner. How jolly.
But first, just a quick word to acknowledge that many of you have been mailing in to thank Jeff and I for putting this on. But you have to appreciate this is a great gift back to us. Jeff and I have never met and, as we live on two different continents, may well never meet except through these transmissions of typing and, while it is a bit different for him, soon I will enter my sevenths calendar year of pressing keys as I think about beer and, for 98% of it at least, it is a solitary endeavor. Doing this contest for me is a way to not only share the benefit of connecting with so many beery folk but also to validate some of my thoughts about how emotionally connected we are to this beer thing - and what better way to express it than through good photography. So thanks to each and everyone of you from me and Jeff as well as all of you to each other... if that makes any sense.
That being said, without further adieu, here are the next to last prizes... I think #22 to #33... and have I mentioned that this volume of entries and prizes is, you know, insane?
