    beer bottle and glassThere were some great entries in the Sagebrush Classic Feast beer haiku contest this year. Unfortunately, the judges have to narrow them down to one winner. Thanks to everyone for their entries! I wish I had a prize for all of you.

    Here are the judge’s top entries:

    The winning entry is by Rachel:

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

    The runner up by one vote:

    Lisa Richardson:

    Sunshine for the tongue
    Hops turned into brewed delights
    Liquid Oregon

     

    Honorable mentions:

    Lisa Richardson:

    Sunshine for the tongue
    Hops turned into brewed delights
    Liquid Oregon

    Clinton Springer:

    how like a pharaoh
    the first must have felt, sipping
    grain turned to manna

    Clinton Springer:

    it’s our mother’s milk:
    the gentle hands pull the taps,
    and down rains pure ale

    Carlos Perez:

    Beer transforms my mind
    to thoughts of cascading water
    Pooling, foaming, cool.

    Erin Hatzi:

    Malt, hops, yeast, heaven
    Bitter never tastes so sweet
    Drink of the people

    Gabe Finch:

    Bottled amber poured
    In code, this malt does whisper
    Of sunbeams sweet voice

    Brian:

    The Dissident Shouts
    “Free yourself from boring beer”
    Prepare to pucker!

    Brian:

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

    Hoss:

    Beer me Bartender
    The sweet nectar you render
    Is hoppy splendor

    Clinton Springer:

    born at sea, tumbling
    through and rising from valley
    soil, into your glass

     

    Rachel, please contact me ASAP so I can arrange for your tickets! Have a great time at Sagebrush!

    Eighteen chefs from as far as New York, DC and Paris, including local chefs Cory Schreiber, Vitaly Paley, and Scott Newman will participate. The proceeds for this event benefits Central Oregon children and families. I’m happy to support this good cause. These tickets have a value of $195.00 each!
