St. Paul Homebrew Club

Just stop on by. This meeting. Another meeting. Whenever it works for you. Meetings are informal and tend to last about two hours or so.

This meeting: Tuesday, December 5th, 7 – 9 p.m.

Clear your calendar for what Dave decided is the Saint Paul Homebrew Club’s 25th annual holiday club meeting and potluck. We’ll be back at Falling Knife Brewing, and may even be lucky enough for an all-access behind-the-scenes brewery tour by Mr. Tom Berg, himself!

Keep in mind that we can’t bring homebrew to Minneapolis, so keep it at home this month. But Tom will have a nice selection, so bring your cash money.

Falling Knife Brewing:
783 Harding St NE #100, Minneapolis, MN 55413

New this year, we’re getting some pizzas ordered from Wrecktangle, but feel free to bring an appetizer, desert, or whatever else you’d like to bring (club members – check your email for the signup sheet). If you are planning on coming, please give me a heads up so I can get in the ballpark on numbers of pizzas (non-members – just let us know through the comments below if you plan to attend).

Don’t forget also that in January we’ll be back at NB headquarters in Roseville for a British and Irish Stouts Brew the Style! More to come next week.

Meeting Agenda
We will be returning to Bang Brewing Company in St. Paul where our wonderful host Jay – and maybe even Sandy if we are lucky – will talk Kernza. Hear Sandy’s interview about brewing with organic ingredients with John Holl on the “All about Beer” podcast. Jay and Sandy have long been generous friends of the SPHBC – indoor voices, please and thank you, tip well.

Plus the usual SPHBC tomfoolery. Bring your own beers and meads and ciders and cysers (oh, my!) for sampling and feedback . Remember to bring your notes.

Location:
Bang Brewing Company, located at 2320 Capp Road, St. Paul, Minnesota

Meeting Agenda
SPHBC member Art got us in the door at White Bear Meadery, which was host to September’s Valkyries Cup Mead Competition judging by chatting up the owner (nice work, Art).

Think of it as a Mead Day reboot; we’re able to bring our own mead (or homebrew), but be sure to also try out a mead from our host.

This is our first meeting at White Bear Meadery – indoor voices, please and thank you, tip well.

NOTE THAT THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TUESDAY OF THE MONTH (as usual)

Meeting Agenda

This month, is A VERY SPECIAL AFTER SCHOOL MEETING …

In a Norwegian tradition called Oppskåke, travelers Ivar and Johnny will be discussing historic Norwegian farmhouse brewing. This will certainly be a unique experience.  Ivar and Johnny are coming to Minnesota – gear in tote – to share a few weeks with us and teach us.

This meeting is fresh off the heels of their brewing event on Saturday, September 16th, in which they will have coordinated multiple simultaneous brewing demonstrations that showcase brewing techniques from four regions of Norway (you should go to that, too, if you can). At the September meeting, we will be sampling these beers.

Northern Brewer World Headquarters – 2221 MN-36, Roseville, MN (https://tinyurl.com/NBheadquarters)
