Greetings Hombrew Members, Rick here with a special announcement about this Friday. Where has summer gone and what have we all been doing? This Friday, the MHBA will meet at Barley Johns for an afternoon (sunset) meeting. The event starts when you arrive and ends after the sun sets. Talk about an open-ended invitation! What's in it for me? Great question. This meeting will be called to order and will include club updates, treasury status, upcoming events, and a few general business topics. Did I mention free beer? Someone always brings free beer and I just might be able to find a can or two down in the brewery! If I can't, John brews up some mighty fine beverages although I am still trying to weasel out a sample of his bourbon barrel porter. John and his crew also cook up some pretty exotic foods and treats so stop by early for a snack and stay for the meeting. Hope you can stop by. We will try to kick off the meeting around 6:00. Call or write if you have additional suggestions. Thanks, Rick O MHBA
