Big Brew + April Minutes (Broken Attachment)

Minutes!

Baltibrew's 2013 Big Brew participation will take place at Nepenthe this Saturday, May the 4th. Further details on the event can be found on the facebook event created by Nepenthe.

The long and short is that some of our members and a few of Brewtherville Labs' members will be brewing in Nepenthe's parking lot starting at 10 a.m.

If you're interested in brewing at the event, contact us to get coordinated.

Those of you who've already committed to brewing, please get your recipes to the folks at Nepenthe asap.

April Regular — Big Brew planning

March Minutes

April meeting will take place Thursday, 4-18 at our new regular spot, Nepenthe Homebrew, located in Meadow Mill at 3600 Clipper Mill Road #130 a. Once again, bring your own chair to meeting. Meeting starts at 8 p.m. sharp.

 

Agenda:

  1. Ed topic: Hops/IPAs plus a general "Fix my stuck fermentation talk"
  2. April/May (Big) Brew consolidation (and how this affects subsequent brew schedules)
  3. Brief NHC discussion (Baltibrew club support? Or attendee support only?)
  4. Homebrew Bike Tour
  5. Treasury/Accounts finalization
  6. Replacing Guild Rep
  7. Guild Picnic

See you there.

New Meeting Location

Once again, Baltibrew will move its monthly meeting location. We gratefully appreciate all that Dionysus did for us the past year or so, and wish the ownership luck on new ventures.

Starting March 21st, we will begin meeting at Nepenthe Homebrew, located in Meadow Mill at 3600 Clipper Mill Road #130 a.

Meeting time will still be 8 p.m, which is closing time for the shop, so get there early if you want to buy stuff. At least for this meeting, bring your own chair. 

You may (and should) still bring homebrew to meeting.

Feb. Minutes + March Notes (Broken Attachment)

February's meeting was productive, and efficiently SHORT! for once. Read the minutes.

Baltibrew is involved as a sponsor with Wootown's Barley Legal homebrew competition coming up on March 23rd. There's still time to submit your homebrew to the competition (March 16th deadline), but what we really need from Baltibrewers is your time to serve as a judge or a steward for the event. As the details on the site linked above will tell you, there's some great prizes available, and in the competition's past, volunteers have been very well taken care of.

Baltibrew is also gearing up for the National Homebrewer's Conference in Philadelphia this June. We've picked out an interesting theme for club night, and we're starting work on beers to showcase how unique our club is. Even if you're not planning to attend the conference, your input would be invaluable.

Last but not least, in gearing up for the 15th anniversary of the Free State Homebrewer's Guild, the guild has put out a survey that we'd like you to take. Deadline to complete the survey is March 10th.

I hope you all recovered from the weekend/belgian beer fest.  We had a good amount of people throughout the weekend representing our nice little brewing community at max's.

-National Homebrewers Conference
-New Officers/Dues
-April Group Brew (what/when/where?)
-Homebrew Sampling
be sure to bring homebrew to share after the "meeting" portion is over.  See you then!
