February Club Beer Events:

Feb 17th – Joint Beer Meeting with the Impaling Alers at Larry’s Brewing Supply, 7:00 pm

Feb 23rd – Beer Meeting – Beer Blending and National Homebrewers Conference Preparation - 6:30 pm, Airways Brewing

As a reminder, we have arranged with the Impaling Alers to have a joint membership for BEWBC members in the Impaling Alers. This means that you can attend the monthly Impaling Alers meeting on the third Friday of each month. You’ll have meeting opportunities every month in addition to regular BEWBC beer meetings. In return, we’ll work in some joint meetings where we will run the meeting for both clubs. It’ll be a great chance to interact with a lot of other local homebrewers and get feedback on your beers.

February Beer Meeting – Beer Blending and National Homebrewers Conference Planning

Feb 23rd 6:30 – 8:00 pm 

Airways Brewing Company, Kent

Location:
6644 S 196th St, #T-100, Kent, WA 98032

Our February beer meeting will tackle two topics. First we’ll tackle the topic of blending beers. Not every beer ends up how you wanted to, and by bringing together a few of your beers, you may be able to create something much better than what you’d started with. We’ll talk flavor profiles, balances, and blending techniques and do some hands-on blending during the meeting. Who says that only winemakers blend?

If you have a beer around that is very strong in terms of hops, malt, or yeast character, bring it along to be a part of the class. We can use it in some blending experiments.

Then we’ll discuss how our club will participate in the 2012 National Homebrewers Conference this June. Even though tickets sold out in record time, there may be some extra ways that people can involved.

So come on down to Airways for a good time. Please RSVP Online so we know that you are coming.
