Don’t forget to enter the 2010 Beerku Contest

The 2010 Beerku Contest is still underway. What’s a beerku, you ask? It’s a haiku dedicated to beer. And if you write the winning beerku, you’ll win two free tickets to the Deschutes Brewery Sagebrush Classic Feast. Saturday, July 17, Eighteen world-class chefs will be coming to Bend for a night of cuisine expertly paired with Deschutes Brewery beer.

Entering to win is easy, but writing a beerku that captures the tastiness of beer or the enjoyment of drinking a pint can be challenging. (Remember, you have to follow the five syllable, seven syllable, five syllable model.) Here’s my first attempt:

Raucous pub at night
Joining my friends for a pint
Winter kept at bay

Hmm, maybe I need to keep working at that one.

Go ahead, give it a try yourself!
