April Events

This month we are getting back outside: a recent bierstacheln (beer poking) hang-out and this coming weekend is a big brew on the club system to go into the Solera barrel. Keep an eye out for a transfer and bottling day in May.

Members share their brew days and outside hangs in the club email or the club Discord chat for topics like #brewday, #currently-drinking, or taproom tours in #3p-pedal-pint-pedal.

Cheers!

March Education: Pressure Fermentation and Closed Transfer

How does fermenting under pressure affect beer? What does it mean to “closed transfer”? These topics will be explored at the monthly meeting next week as the education topic. Come by and find out if you can do that with your existing equipment and what you can do with your brew days.

East Side Neighborhood Services, Northeast Minneapolis.
Thu Mar 20, 7-9pm. Everyone is welcome!

March Events

Today we are going to Unmapped. Next week Falling Knife. Later this month talking about brewing sake. This is another eventful month for the club, so come join when you are able and meet up with the club. Brewers of all levels are welcome to chat about and share beer, mead, cider, wine, and knowledge!

The photo this month is from the February Taproom Takeover social hour at Wandering Leaf in Saint Paul. There was a great turnout — and great beer. We get together each month at breweries rotating around the area to just hang out and chat over a pint or two. This is a great opportunity for folks to get to know the club. Stop by any time!
