The Jim Pell Award goes to the clubs top brewer. The winner is choicen based on our monthly styles competitions and our open compentition, Celebrewtion. The runaway winner in 2009 was Joe Cruz! Congratulations Joe and thank you for all of those wonderful beers!
Winning the 2009 Vic Cearly Award for Service to GCBA was Scott Williams. This award is given to a non-Board member for service to the club. In 2009, Scott was instrumental in our club's success at the National Homebrew Conference and donated huge quantities of time, energy, and beer to our events all year long. Congratulations Scott!
