Monthly Club Meeting - Oct. 2017

Awards - Closed Transfer - Beers!

Welcome to our new members Andrew and Rachael Parke, and the crew of the new Bullfrog Creek Brewing Co. who are just starting the process of building a new brewery on Lithia Pinecrest in Valrico!

Our award-winning brewers continue their winning streak! George and Mary won both gold and silver awards for their chocolate peanut butter stout and cider respectively.  Jay ? was also a winner.  Congratulations to them as they encourage more of our club brewers to enter competitions.  It really is the best way to find out what you’re doing right!

President Joe demonstrated a closed transfer process.  He connected CO2 to a plastic carboy to a carny keg to a homemade spunding valve to show us how oxidation can be minimized.

​And what do we love most of all? Beer!  We tasted samples from Dean, an IPA; Brian, his rye IPA; and Mary, a Berliner and her award winning Stout!
