Camping with the Barony at Pennsic? You MUST Pre-Reg this week!

Pennsic Pre-registration ends next Wednesday, June 19. If you are planning to camp in the Baronial Camp (N-10), you MUST pre-register – paid – or you cannot camp with us. This is due to space constraints.

Get your pre-reg in now!

I highly recommend that you register sooner rather than later since the site has a history of crashing on the last day due to the many procrastinators.

NEW CHAMPIONS!

Greetings Debatable Lands!

Brandubh et Hilderun take great joy to announce the following changes to Our Baronial Champions:

We thank Lord Meinulfr Grimsson for his service over the past year as Our Thrown Weapons Champion. Meinulfr conducted a gloriously fun and challenging throw to determine his success today at thrown weapons practice and Lord Duncan MacCoulagh emerged victorious the new Debatable Lands Thrown Weapons Champion. Lord Ronan O’Conall agreed to stand as his second.

We further thank Lord Robert MacEwin of Thornhill for his service as Our Heavy Weapons Champion over the past year. Lord Robert conducted a double round robin tournament where all entrants fought each other twice. The tournament produced THLord Bors of Rouen and THLord Guillaume le Noir as the head of the pack. They faced each other in five passes and THLord Bors of Rouen was proclaimed the Baronial Heavy Weapons Champion. THLord Guilaume le Noir agreed to stand as his second.

So Vivant to our New Champions selected today Lord Duncan MacCoulagh Thrown weapons Champion and THLord Bors of Rouen Heavy Weapons Champion!

Cheers,
Brandubh et Hilderun

Brewers Guild Bittering Experiment – Starting 6/12

War Practice proved fun and productive for the BMDL Brewers!
Jorundr taught a class on this year’s hyppocras experiment (different herb blends in the same base wine), and I taught a class on our yeast experiment (different yeasts in the same base must – honey and water).

We are now looking ahead to Pennsic and our next experiment – bittering agents used in ales. Hops were not nearly as common in period as they are now, so we will be showcasing four other herbs used to bitter/flavor this beloved malty beverage.

The June meeting for the guild is Wednesday, 6/12, at Lady Alysoun’s house in Pleasant Hills. Official start time is 7pm, but since all-grain brewing takes all evening, feel free to stop by as early as 4.

Email brewing@debatablelands.aethelmearc.org with questions. The address is in the Dark Pages (or you can contact the host directly).
Hope to see you then!
