Our first club competition in years is now back. Brew up a batch of your finest American/English Pale ale for competition and judging this August. All members will vote on all beers and the winner receives a ton of shit talking rights. Tasting sheets will be provided, bring a pen and a thirst for summer beers!

With the growing size of the club, hosting has become more than making sure you have some beers available for the guys to drink. As not everyone in the club has the availability to host at their house we would like to continue to share in the work required for a meeting to happen. We are looking for a member or two to team up with the host to bring beer snacks and maybe swing by early to set up or stay later and help clean up. We will be looking for this for the next few months to get a feel on how successful this could be. If we are using the discord we can reach out to offer assistance, additionally I can get people in touch with each other to start the conversation.

Discord: 

If you just can't get enough homebrewing conversation in your life join us over on the discord for some thoughtful conversation as well as shit posting.

Meeting Recap / Beers:

A spectacular meeting in Colter's backyard with amazing food and amazing beers. It all started out as a warm June afternoon and turned into a nice and cool Spring evening sipping on beers and throwing down some of Colter's famous tacos. These outdoor summer meetings are the best.
