So, let's say farewell to 2015 with a bang at our monthly meeting taking place at Odell Brewing on Thursday, December 3rd from 7pm-9pm.

Please be sure to thank our host by buying showing up a little early and trying some great Odell beer.  Bring your homebrew, socialize and have a good time!

Style of the Month: Belgian Dark Strong Ales

We are looking for someone to host the style of the month at our December meeting!  If you are interested in hosting Belgian Dark Strong Ales, please respond to me indicating your interest.  If we do not receive a volunteer to host, we may have to postpone the panel. If you have a Belgian Dark Strong, please bring for those to try.

Mini-Comp: Taking Place in January

The next LP mini-competition will be taking place at our January meeting with the category being Porters.  This includes all styles of porters (Baltic, Robust and Brown).  Winner will receive a gift certificate to Hops and Berries and select the style for the next mini-comp.

Here is our regular meeting agenda:

Beer Social: For the first half hour of the meeting we hang out, meet, and greet old friends and new members alike. Try other’s homebrewed beer, cider, and mead, and have others try yours. Essentially geek out about our hobby for a bit. New members, keep an eye out for the Board members who will be introduced during the announcements; any of them will be happy to introduce you around! And don’t forget, this is a club of homebrewers and homebrewers homebrew, so please bring in your homemade fermented beverages to share!

Tasting Panel: This is a small break-out group that gives each other direct feedback on the homebrew you bring. It will be run by an experienced, long-time member of the club.  This group is more in-depth and direct than our beer social portion of the evening, but still informal. If you’d like to get and/or give direct feedback on homebrew, this is the group for you. If you have homebrew with a defect, bring it here! This is an excellent opportunity to learn about defects, to experience them, and to learn how to avoid them in the future.

Looking forward to seeing everyone on the 3rd!
Cheers,
Hermen
