Posted on Posted in Editor's report and club news

Canberra Brewers, welcome to 2024!

We hope you’ve had a relaxing break filled with a few froths and bit of brewing thrown in too. There’s a bunch of events coming up in the next few weeks, February and even a couple of competitions in the pipeline for you to starting prepping.

27th January 2024: GABS countdown @ BentSpoke in Braddon

The Club has booked one of the big outdoor tables at BentSpoke to countdown the GABS hottest 100 and celebrate the winners. #Cranky_No1_2024

The Club will be putting on some snacks throughout the afternoon, so come along!

1st February 2024: Club Meeting

As usual the club meetings are on the first Thursday of February at the Polish White Eagle Club. Please support our hosts by buying your first drink from The Polo, or arrive early and explore their menu.

There will be our brew-education session from Kurtz, the 6-pack swap and the club raffle. Don’t forget to bring along your latest or greatest brew to share (bottles or kegs) and new members are always welcome.

If you’re interested in ridesharing, then start a conversation on the forum or the Facebook page and, last of all, please consider sitting this meeting out if you’ve tested positive to COVID.

16-18 February 2024: Multicultural Festival

Multi-Culti is back for 2024 and the club will be selling local Canberra brews (commercial) at our stall. It’s always great fun and a really important event for the club each year as it helps fund the club’s activities and provides an opportunity to promote and welcome potential members.

But MultiCulti requires volunteers for it to be a successful club event, so if you’re available for a few hours on any of the days, please sign up on the forum here: http://tinyurl.com/brewers2024mcf

16 March 2024: Club Competition 1

The first competition is coming up quickly, but there’s still plenty of time to get a few entries brewed. The Categories are listed on the forum here: http://tinyurl.com/brewers2024compdates and Nic and Ed are innovating by opening The Club Comps to the public. Further details to be posted on the forum and FB pages soon.

Don’t forget the Best of Show will be brewed at Cypher Brewing! So please thank them for sponsoring the Club Competitions by visiting them in Gungahlin and tasting some of their brews.
