April Preview

By Nick Wiseman, Editor

April is with us and this month will see the first of many new education sessions to benefit club members about how we brew our beer.

It will start with a brewers challenge thanks to Bintani and Richard (Wig & Pen) supplying the ingredients – the recipe is the same but the yeasts are different.

Phil Meddings from Bintani will be speaking about yeast which ties in with the North vs South challenge with more information available on the night about the yeasts, beers and a newly developed hop.

The beers from the challenge will be available to sample and compare the differences – can you pick them?

BJCP training for 2013 started last month, a quick review will be given on the night to let the members know how it’s going and maybe get a few more interested for the next course.

Make sure you keep May 4 free for the big brew day scheduled – our Social Secretary Kevin ‘Mr No-Tip’ Hingston will let everyone know what’s happening on the night.

A reminder to everyone that wants Library books to put your request in so it can be brought in on the night and also return any books that are out so others can have the chance to borrow them.

Raffles for the night will consist of a kitted out Better Bottle, some swag for your bar and a nice selection from Plonk.
