When: Saturday April 7th, 2PM – 6PM
Where:4981 Eagle Rock Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90041
This Saturday we’ll be meeting in the Eagle Rock Homebrew Supply parking lot behind the shop. We had a great time here in January and last year, so we’ll be here every three months. Feel free to bring commercial examples, in addition to any homebrews. It isn’t a bad idea to bring a folding chair if you don’t want to stand for 4 hours. If you would like to contribute to the cause, snacks are always welcome! In order to reduce trash, we suggest members bring their own tasting glass.
The style of the month is Scottish and Irish Ales, but feel free to bring any type of homebrew. Consider bringing a copy of your recipe, as that only helps when discussing your beer and getting feedback. Scottish and Irish Ales are also the category for the Club Only Competition. If you have a good example of one, please bring three 12-oz bottles to the meeting along with the recipe and bottle labels already filled out. The best beer will be sent to represent the club, and those who were not selected can take their remaining bottles home or share with the club. If you would like to see the meeting locations and styles for the rest of this year, check the website for recent updates.
