Not sure if it's one and the same (although I believe it is)...via Twitter: Tidepool Brewing is a home brew team located in Reno, Nevada. If in fact they are just homebrewers and have made a beer to dontate, I would say that they would not be eligible to be added as a new entry due to their amateur status. Here's also some chatter about Tidepool. The labels look freaking awesome!!! http://sideshowsigns.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html

looks like that's the case...originally advertised as a SN Beer Camp beer, but apparently that's not the case. Oh well... Thanks, man.

This one is confusing to me. The Facebook page tells a lot, but calling themselves a homebrew team and Company doesn't jive. You're not supposed to use the word company unless you are a registered business entity. One idea is to contact them via Facebook and ask if they are really a business or not.

Facebooks too cool for me...you gotta be registered to send em correspondence, right?

Hey guys, I'm Justin, one half of Tidepool Brewing Co. I randomly stumbled upon this thread while doing our website. Hopefully I can help with any confusion, and also answer any further questions. We a are a Homebrew team in Reno, NV. We are in the process of moving forward to become a brewing company. We are a registered business entity, however we are still jumping through all the legal steps to be able to legally sell/distribute beer. We brewed a specialty beer for Sierra Tap House. (Which is not actually affiliated with Sierra Nevada Brewery, They just specialize in having mostly Sierra Nevada Beer on tap.) A Pint or Bottle of this beer was given out to any one who made a minimum $3 donation to care chest of sierra nevada. I don't believe any of our beers have been advertised as a beer camp beer... however if it has happened it was a mis-print, and not advertised by us. Very sorry for any confusion. We have had 3 occasions with beer on tap at sierra tap house, each time involving a donation to recieve a tasting. We use this to help raise money for Care Chest, and to get our beer out and get feedback from the public. Starting the first week of June we will have beer on tap almost every Thursday (except for cask night) at 7pm. Thanks for your interest!

Justin, welcome! Good of you to drop by. Thanks for explaining the situation. Best of luck, and keep us posted!
