Guild Holiday Party Tickets go on sale tomorrow at 9a.m. DO NOT sleep on buying them, as this ALWAYS sells out fast. More details about the charities involved can be found on the guild site linked in the last sentence. We really want to have a heavy presence at this event. Baltibrew is the fastest growing club in the state, the youngest on average, and — we think — the most diverse. Let's show the rest of the clubs what we're all about.
Minutes from last Thursday's meeting are after the jump. As noted at the meeting, please read these here. They're posted to the website specifically so we don't have to re-hash all aspects of old business from the previous meeting. This saves us time, and gets us down to the ACTUAL business at hand of drinking, sharing, and discussing homebrew.
In addition to the link to minutes, if you won't take my word for how fun the Guild Holiday Party is, I've included a more thorough description.
Quick reminder that we'll be meeting on 11-3; 8p.m. at Alewife. That's tomorrow.
In addition to this Thursday's meeting, we have been invited to Wootown's annual Mead mazing at the home of Lloyd and Ruth-Ann Snyder. This is a bit of a hike up to White Hall, MD, but it's always a good time and an interesting opportunity to interact with another club, see how they brew, see how they conduct business, and also to take home some mead. Cost for a fermenter is usually around $30, so bring cash or your checkbook. I'll try to give a specific amount before the date.
Agenda after the jump.
Seems appropriate that we'll be brewing a Nightmare Before Christmas ale on the day before Halloween. The current iteration of the recipe is fairly interesting — without giving too much away, think off-kilter Xmas cookies.
We're only brewing 10 gallons, so there will not be any available for club purchase. If you have your own rig, feel free to do your own brew.
Brew day starts early as usual, bring food, beer to share, chairs, etc. We're meeting at Josh's place to get started at 9 in the a.m. Check the phone list if you need to get a hold of Josh by phone.
I thought our members would be interested in this insightful video on Brian Strumke and Stillwater. Enjoy.
Baltibrewers,
Our October meeting is tomorrow, Thursday, October 13 at Alewife Baltimore. The starting time is 8:00 p.m. and we have a full agenda:
Also as a part of BBW events, pints are $5 at Alewwife tomorrow.
See you tomorrow night.
