It has been a while, but we have a meeting coming up this Sunday July 20th Noon at Trove Brewing Company!
We don’t have an educational topic this month, but feel free to bring homebrew, discuss your State Fair entries, and have a great time with fellow homebrewers!

It’s time for this year’s Iron Brewer event in collaboration with Hackamore Brewing!
This year’s participants will be entering their best take on a Belgian Tripel. The world is your oyster in determining what recipe you want to use, how you want to brew it, and fermentation regiment. If wanting to participate – email [email protected] by May 1. If you do not sign up – you are not qualified to compete.
Drop-off of your fully completed beer is the week of June 16 – 21. You should drop off two 12oz bottles of the brew to the staff at Hackamore Brewing. They will check your name off the list.
Judging will occur shortly thereafter to determine who the winner is. It will be judged against the BJCP Guidelines for Belgian Tripel.
Awards will be held on the evening of July 10th – first, second, and third will be awarded. First place will get to brew their recipe in collaboration with Hackamore Brewing on their system, have it canned / labeled (have fun working with them on a label!), and have it entered to the Great American Beer Festival for the Pro-Am competition.
A lot of fun upcoming events and future events planned for the year just added! Make sure to get them on the calendar.
