Minutes from the July and June meetings


July 2nd, 2012 Meeting

Club members decided it would be a good use of club funds to supplement a grain purchase from Jeremy.  Interested club members can purchase grain and part of the price of the grain will be paid for out of our funds.

Eric suggested that we move our fruit beer competition  from our August meeting to Sunday, August 12th to be held at Crabtree new tasting room if it is ready and available to us.  Competition would be held from 2 to 5 pm.  Everyone agreed that this would give us more time to sample and vote.

Beers sampled:

Dennis Swingler - Schwartz Beer
Steve Skinner - American Brown Ale from Big Brew
John Coan - English Brown Ale from Big Brew
Del Scholfield - English Brown Ale from Big Brew
Eirk Briscoe  - Saison experiment
Del Scholfield - Irish Red
