Please mark your calendars for the Minnesota Homebrewers
Association’s fifth annual celebration of national Teach a Friend to
Homebrew Day. Details follow below. Grab that friend or rellie who has threatened
to learn homebrewing and bring him or her to Barley John’s on Saturday,
November 1st, 10-2. He or she could win an entire homebrewing kit,
courtesy of Brew & Grow, Midwest Supplies, or Northern Brewer.
The cider
pick-up will also happen during this meeting.
Homebrew is welcome at Barley John’s, but please
remember to purchase copious quantities of their excellent beers and food as
well. Generous tipping helps a lot.
I need a few folks to demo brew. The club
will provide the equipment and ingredients. You need to brew an extract batch
for the assembled throngs, explaining the process and having them stir the
wort, add hops, etc. Then you get to take home five gallons in your own
carboy. Usually the beer then is served at the club Christmas party, but that
isn’t a requirement. Please let me know if you’re willing to
tackle this.
This is also a great opportunity to renew your membership
before the year is out.
Please feel free to distribute this notice far and wide.
Thanks much,
John Longballa
