Our next club meeting will be at Klockow Brewing in Grand Rapids, Tuesday July 16th at 6 PM. Any prospective members are welcome to visit and find out what we’re about.
We’ll be discussing our participation in the upcoming beer event, the 10th anniversary Deer River BBQ and Brewfest. We need homebrewers who are willing to enter their beers in competition, and we also need beer judges. Does that sound like a difficult job or what?
Our club did a collaborative brew with Fulton Brewing of Minneapolis in 2015, and we now have a nicely aged Brett Farmhouse Ale to serve at Deer River. We also need to discuss a collaborative brew with Klockow, which we’ve been casually considering for a few months. We need to make some decisions, move forward and set a date.
So show up Tuesday the 16th! We normally share homebrew and potluck food, but don’t stay away if you can’t bring anything to share – there’s usually plenty. And brewers are good cooks!
