Upcoming Meetings & Events
September meeting: Dan Listermann wants us to meet at his place out in West Harrison (27507 Longnecker Rd, West Harrison 47060). Campout encouraged. Therefore, the meeting has moved to Saturday, September 20th. Think of it as Beer and Propane Lite.
September Social Night: High Grain Brentwood on Tuesday, September 16th. I'm confirming the Brewers are available to meet, may shift based on their schedule.
The Dayton DRAFT Brewfest is Saturday, September 27th. They could use more judges and stewards if you are available!
October meeting: Off flavors. Remind yourself what diacetyl, acetaldehyde, DMS, and other brewing faults in flavor and aroma. Friday, October 17th, location TBD.
October social night: Urban Artifact/Fruitblood. They are both solid sponsors, and we kind of fizzled out on visiting them during Beermas last year. Let's support them when we aren't stressed about the holidays! Wednesday, October 22nd.
November: DVD Brew wants to host us for Learn to Homebrew Day! Saturday, November 1st. More details to come. We should be able to brew in his brewing space, which should accommodate multiple setups.
