Hey-o guys. Looks like we forgot to create a reminder for the event in a timely fashion, but you all know that our meetings are on the last Sunday of each month, barring any special events.

This event we’ll be having John Bartle-Clar talking to us about ‘Bocks’.

Address in forums.

January 2015

Happy Brew Year, BrewVIC. Now that the holidays are over, time to have another get together!

Come over to my new house, check out my new massive brewing space.

In addition to the regular BrewVIC meeting stuff we will be bringing back the style spotlight, with a bit more enthusiasm. The goal of this style spotlight is to designate a style that is encouraged for each meeting for anyone interested to brew and bring (of course, all homebrews of any style are welcomed at every meeting so don’t worry if you didn’t brew the style of the meeting). Dave J will talk briefly about English Milds with a homebrew version or two to share, and then we’ll encourage anyone interested to bring their own version to the March meeting (don’t worry, there will be a reminder) so we can learn from everyone’s recipe and process.

See you then!

Come on out and join us for a big day of brewing. There will be lots of different systems going so it is a great opportunity to learn and talk brewing. As per usual bring some homebrew if you got it and some finger food. If you want to come out and brew please do, just post below so we have some sort of an idea how many folks want to.

BrewVIC April Meeting

Dave — Thu, 20 Mar 2014 01:01:38 +0000

Now that Victoria Beer Week is over we can rest our livers and get back to business.

We’re going to try for the last Sunday of each month for monthly meetings. Don’t like it? Say something!

Hopefully everyone is brewing up a storm and has something to share! A snack or interest in brewing is always welcome if you got no beer.

Maybe I can rustle up a special guest for the meeting. We got plenty of time.
