Mark Your Calendars! Big Brew 2007 is Saturday May 5th…
The first Saturday in May has been officially designated by Congress as “National Home Brewing Day.” The American Homebrewers Association (AHA) created “Big Brew” as a way for its members to celebrate and also to introduce new people to the art of brewing. It is also a damn good time…
As always, I host a Big Brew event at my brewery (garage) in Charleston and I sincerely hope to see some of you there if only to stop by for a beer or to just peer into my mash tun. It’s pretty much an all-day event usually finishing up sometime in the early evening.
I will be brewing one of three designated recipes for Big Brew 2007. This year I will make a very hoppy IPA using a special hopping technique.
If you would like to stop by, please drop me an email at rireland@suddenlink.net
