Hey Everyone!

Just a quick reminder that the next meeting is on February 5th at Torque Brewing from 7pm to 9pm.

Originally we were going to be doing the sensory training however, we need a bit more time for the kits to arrive. So we’ll be doing that one at the March meeting.

However, we have another topic ready to go for February’s meeting: Sensory Evaluation of Grains. We’ll be taking some various grains and steeping them then doing a sensory evaluation on them.

Here’s a link to the process we’ll be following: http://beersmith.com/blog/2017/06/23/sensory-evaluation-of-grains-for-brewing-the-new-asbc-method/

See you all there!
Cheers!

Hey Everyone,

Just a reminder that the November meeting is on Tuesday November 6th at Fort Garry Brewing Company. The meeting begins at 7pm and ends at 9pm.

Club Kit
We’ve been working on the club kit last month and getting our ducks in a row. (Many thanks to Jacob at Grape and Grain for all his help!) To guarantee that you receive a club kit we’ll need to receive your dues payment ($40) along with your kit preference (All grain or Extract) by end-of-day November 16th at the very latest. Dues payments that occur after November 16th will not receive a club kit (but you’ll still be in on the Windup BBQ, just don’t miss that deadline too!). If this is an issue for you and you would like to make arrangements, please contact me directly (before November 16th) to see what we can work out.

Club Kit Payment
You can pay the dues at Tuesday’s meeting. Or you can E-Transfer the funds to the Treasurer (Paul) at the following address: treasurer@winnipegbrewbombers.ca. If you E-Transfer the dues please indicate in the notes/memo your kit preference (all grain or extract).

Guest Speaker
There’s been a bit of a change in plans. Sean Richens will be giving a presentation on recipe formulation and a few other neat tidbits of information.

Can’t wait to see everyone there!

Cheers!

Hey Everyone,

We had a good showing of members at Tuesday’s meeting and a great energy! It was great seeing the members again after a summer off. There were many stories of brewing adventures over the summer flowing and some great beers were sampled. Also, we had a few new faces in the crowd! So a big welcome to everyone, old and new alike!

Our next meeting is scheduled for 7pm Tuesday October 2nd at Torque Brewing. See the calendar for the meeting schedule.

For October’s meeting we’re looking to do a “Show and Tell” of sorts. There are a lot of new brewers who may not have experience with some of the brewing gadgets out there. So if you have some neat (or perhaps obscure) brewing gadget that you would like to show and talk a bit about let us know at: executive@winnipegbrewbombers.ca.

Our monthly meeting will be held at Fort Garry Brewing this month!

There was a mistake on the event calendar, the December meeting is being held on December 8th! Bring your best IPA for a chance to have your recipe brewed at Half Pints for the club Big Brew!

*Update*

First meeting is confirmed for Tuesday September 15th at Half Pints brewery! Start time is 7:30pm.

It has been a busy summer, but the 2015/2016 Winnipeg Brew Bomber season is coming soon! The first meeting should be held mid-September. Check back at the end of August for a confirmed date and location!

Also check out the new club Frequently Asked Question’s page under the “About” section. This should have all the information you are looking for if you want to know how to join!
