If you plan to attend the event at Garys this Sat, please let me know ASAP. In addition to the Saison made on Teach a Friend to Homebrew Day and the Brown Ale made on Big Brew Day, we will serve Braggot and Bernie's, English Porter. I also have mead & wine for sampling. Again, the purpose of the meeting is to promote our club, our Beer Fest, and homebrewing. Instead of food, the club will buy a beer from the bar for all who RSVP. Those who do not RSVP will not be added to the list. We will serve from 2-5 maybe 6.

If you have even a slight interest in the June 11-12 NOLA trip, let me know. Those from EBH and HBU who respond will get first shot at a seat on the bus if it is reasonably safe to do the trip. Need at least 50 interesteds to proceed with plans.

Brewing Irish Red this Sunday the 30th if anyone interested in coming over. Start time depends on the weather.

Need folks to host winos mtgs for May, June, July, Aug, Oct & Nov. Please let me know ASAP. Also, we need an outdoor place for GM & BG mtgs for Feb. March is covered. Hopefully we can return to mtg at local breweries in April.

Thanks to Terra & Tim for hosting the meeting yesterday. The chili was great and the weather was good until it got dark. The Brown Ale, Honey lime Wheat, and Paul's Citra IPA went well. My ABA took the medal by default. It is good. Feb SOM will be Belgian Wit   24A. Any entries??

Our next event will be the make-up mtg at Gary's Brewery & Biergarten this Sat 2-4. We will meet on the pavillion & promote the club and serve beer & mead to those who attend. Please begin RSVP today. If anybody has a beer to share let me know. More details to follow.

At this time we have only 12 interested in the June 11 & 12 NOLA trip. If we cant get enough who might want to go, I will not proceed with plans.

Our next mtg will be this Sunday the 23rd at Terra & Tim's home. Terra is hoping to make chili. SOM comp will be at this mtg. If you have an American Brown Ale for the comp let me know ASAP. Please RSVP if you plan to attend.

We will make up the canceled mtg the 29th at Gary's. Hope everybody got the cancel note yesterday.

We are in the earliest stages of renewing the NOLA trip in June. The date is June 11-12. This will be a go only if it is reasonably safe to do it. Cant put a cost yet, but it will be a few bucks more than last time. Anyone from EBH or HBU who is interested, let me know now. This is not a commitment, just a survey to see if there are enough folks interested to proceed with plans.
