The last meeting of 2021 was a great one! We had 10 members show up with a whopping 24 beers to sample.
BJCP Practice Update: The second practice will be held on Thursday January 13th at 6:30pm at Tom’s house. If you’re planning on attending, a $5 donation would be appreciated to help with the purchasing of beer. This meeting will be practicing with Pale Ales
Next mini-club competition: Neomexicanus hops! If you haven’t started planning your brew for the next mini-club competition which will be taking place at the February meeting, you should get on that! This challenge is simple: brew a beer of any style but it has to use the Neomexicanus hops provided by Sherrog Farms.
Other Discussions: There was some talk about doing another bulk grain buy. One option would be to buy from Proximity Malting up in Colorado. We’ll get more of this planned out after the holidays.
