September update!

by Eric Wentling

Hey Jabbers, Meeting this month is this Friday the 13th! My place at 1966 Fountain Lane, Waconia, starting around 6:30 PM. We will be doing the tasting for our JAB yeast experiment, and the mash paddle will go to someone who brought one of those--but feel free to bring other beers to share if you like. Out JAB family cook-out is to be this Sunday the 15th, starting at 12:00 (Emerson Picnic Area, Technology Drive, East of Costco in Eden Prairie.) Thanks for helping us get this great space Kent! Bring something to grill for your family and perhaps a side dish to share. We will have the club jockey box set up and there is plenty of fridge space so bring a keg, growler, or bottles of homebrew to share. This is a really nice enclosed area with surrounding grass for kids to run around on. Last year we had a pretty low turn-out, but I'm hoping plenty of folks come to hang out. Hope to see you folks soon! --Eric

Easiest cheap method of transporting kegged beer

by GRANT ELDRED

So I'm an amateur with kegging. What is the easiest method of transporting beer from a keg to brew club? I just tried filling a 22 oz bottle from a picnic tap and I made quite a mess. I'm looking for cheap and effective methods. Any advice would be great! Grant

Beer Tours in St. Paul

by Gera Exire La Tour

>From Pig’s Eye to Summit—Saint Paul’s Brewing History by Bus Saturdays 9/14 and 9/21, 3:30 to 6:30 PM Meet at Summit Brewing, 910 Montreal Circle, Saint Paul 55102 Select member rate and enter 'brew' in the member number box at check out to receive the member rate of $30. http://tickets.mnhs.org/default.asp?cgcode=16 or 651-259-3015 Breweries springing up around Saint Paul are a powerful testament to our current fascination with the sudsy stuff. However, Minnesota’s capitol city has a long and rich history with beer, starting with the first brewery opened in Saint Paul in 1849. Today, Summit and other breweries share the city with thriving brew pubs, taprooms, and their historic predecessors—the imposing old Hamm’s and Schmidt Breweries, to name a few. Start your Saturday night early and seek out a new go-to brew with Doug Hoverson, author of Land of Amber Waters. This meandering three hour tour of Saint Paul’s hoppy past and present features samples, conversation and hidden gems along the way. This is being organized by the Minnesota History Center.

Fresh Kramer Cascade hops

by Shawn Kummrow

As many of you know I was not in MN a lot of the Spring and Summer. While recently assessing the status of my brew house it turns out my and the neighbor kids did a bit of destruction to it. Damn kids. ;). Anyway, I won't have time to fix my brewery before my hops go bad. If anyone wants fresh "wet" cascades they are yours. I'll even help on brew day as I'm finally staying home for a while, at least until they tell me to fly somewhere else. :). Kramers cascades are great but I wasn't able to feed them as I should have. This is year 3 for me of his original rhizomes so it appears to be a lot to pick, but I don't know how much there is weight wise. I haven't cut them down yet. Wet I'd guess 8-16 oz., but who knows, it's hard to judge on the bine. Cheers! Shawn
