Mission Statement: To bring home brewers, and the greater community together to increase their knowledge of beer and brewing through education and experimentation, and having fun doing it.
Cheers! You’ve found the official site of the Nordeast Brewers Alliance (NBA). We are one of the largest AHA-sanctioned homebrew clubs local to Minnesota, Northeast Minneapolis, to be exact. We generally meet at East Side Neighborhood Services from 6:45-9:
Our homebrew club meetings consist of educational sessions, brewing information, barrel projects, beer-centric events, tastings, and feedback. The club’s goal is to refine the skills and palate of each member, making us better brewers and more informed drinkers in the process. Other perks of membership include 10% off homebrewing supplies and equipment at local homebrew shops, 10% off at select liquor stores (all detailed here), access to our barrel program, large scale experiments and our Google Group email group and discussion forum. The yearly membership fee is just $20 per household(21+), a cost you’ll easily make back if you spend more than a couple hundred dollars on homebrewing supplies and/or craft beer.
Though our meeting may take place in Northeast Minneapolis and though our namesake might suggest membership consists exclusively of Northeast residents, this is not the case. Members of this homebrew club converge upon Northeast from a variety of locations throughout the Twin Cities and beyond.
If you’re interested in joining the club check out our “Become a Member” page or stop by our next meeting to talk about the logistics. We’re passionate about brewing, thirsty for new members and fresh perspectives.
