Our next meeting will be on Tuesday, April 9th at Sons of Kent from 7:00 - 9:00 as per usual.
This is the first meeting of the 2019 year, the 3rd year for the club! I just want to thank everyone for being a part of the club and advancing homebrewing and beer knowledge in Chatham-Kent.. we're doing a lot to show the community what great beer is. Membership fees can be paid by etransfer to vdggfan1@outlook.com (put your full name in the comments) or by cash at the meeting. As usual the membership fee gets you a branded sampling glass and this year we'll be including something new with the membership.. more details to come at the meeting! If you're not prepared to commit to a full membership fee remember that we offer the first meeting for $2.
At this meeting we'll be discussing the topic of Growing Hops! I'll speak to the horticultural side of humulus lupulus, aka hops, and then we'll open it up to discussion. Quite a few of us grow our own hops so it should be a good discussion! During the May meeting (May 14th) we'll be doing a hop rhizome exchange so if you're interested in growing make sure you come grab some rhizomes next month. Shawn has also put up his hop plants for grabs at the following thread: ckbrewclub.freeforums.net/thread/268/hop-crowns-grabs
We also recognize that we did not deliver on our promise to include t-shirts as part of last years membership fee. We'll be addressing that during this meeting as well.
Reminder that our Spring Challenge: Kveik the World will be taking place on April 27th so get brewing those beers if you haven't already!
See you there,
Alex
