Jamie at Foothills Brewing has brought home some more brewing awards! Announced just yesterday, Foothills won medals at the 2008 World Beer Cup in San Diego, CA. Foothills won a GOLD medal (out of 49 entries) in the "Robust Porter" category for their People's Porter, and a SILVER medal (out of 20 entries) in the "American Style Stout" category for their Total Eclipse Stout. Both have filled Chris's mug repeatedly in the past and he concurs with the winnings.

They brew really quality beers there. So much so that Foothills will be the only North Carolina brewer present at the Savor event in Washington, DC that the House of Gordon is going to next month.
Foothills Mug Club member #17 hailing from Greensboro sure is proud! Congrats (again) Jamie!

In other news, Great Lakes Brewing in Cleveland took a BRONZE medal (out of 16 entries) in the "British-Style Imperial Stout" category for their yummy Blackout Stout. Congrats to them.
