June Meeting

This is a friendly reminder that we will having our monthly meeting Monday, June 20th at 7:00pm. Geoff Groff will be giving a brief overview on all-grain brewing while also walking everyone through the club's brewstand. If you've been interested in getting into all-grain brewing, this will be one of your best opportunities to learn. Plus, after the meeting is over, all members in good standing can lend out the brewstand so you can try all-grain brewing on your own without having to shell out hundreds of dollars on equipment!

One last friendly reminder that we will be having a club picnic this coming Saturday, June 11th at Markin Glen Park in Kalamazoo.
