For the September 25 VMC House Concert, sponsored by Mark & Janet Wallace, and featuring the Caprock Ceili Band and the Tech Irish Set Dancers, RMI inaugurates a new partnership with Milhouse Brewing Company for a special, limited-edition of Rob DeVet's remarkable High Plains Mild Ale. We celebrate & welcome this partnership with Rob, a skilled practitioner of this other valued vernacular tradition! As of Sept 8, the brew is bottled and working, and Rob reports it's smelling very good! 

Rob's costs are approximately $3/bottle. This limited-edition will total 48 bottles, so total costs = $144.

We are inviting friends & supporters of RMI & VMC to bid as sponsor of this brew for the enjoyment of guests & friends at the Sept 25 VMC House Concert. The winning bidder will be credited at the event and thereafter and will be welcome to take home leftovers. Bidding began at the minimum of $144. 

Bids are contained in the comments. Current bidding (4:51pm CDT on Sept 9 12) stands at $155: Camille Pitts is the current high bidder. 

Additional bids are welcome, in the comments :-)
