October 2024 Meeting

Hey KLOBBERS!

It's time to sharpen you sensory skills! We'll have a Siebel Institute sensory training kit at the October meeting at at Brewery Outré (567 E Ransom St, Kalamazoo, MI 49007) on October 21 at 7:00pm. The sensory kit has six flavors and we've decided to split them across both the October and November meetings, however, we're not telling you which is being sampled until afterwards.

For those who wish to study for the sensory test, below is a video from Siebel Institute for each of the flavors.

Contamination - sour & buttery
