Our next meeting will be at UBrew, Arches 29-30, 24 Old Jamaica Road, London, SE16 4AW on Monday 3rd October.
This month we have a presentation from Ali Capper of stocks farm (http://stocksfarm.net).
Unfortunately Ali has had to cancel so at the moment there is no presentation planned – this talk will be rescheduled for a later meeting.
If you have any news items that you’d like to talk about, bring them to the group. Similarly, if you have a brewing question for the Q&A section that you’d like to be answered by the group bring it along and we’ll discuss it.
Members Tastings
Please remember to bring in at least two litres of beer if you intend getting feedback from the whole group during the formal tasting session.
Also please announce on the forum if you intend to bring a beer or not stating:
- Broad style category.
- Strength (in ABV, OG etc.) So that we can order the tastings in a palate sensitive way.
In practical terms we are limited to about 8 beers for general sampling, in the event that there is too much, preference will be shown to those who have reserved a place.
We ask any BJCP & Guild judges to please wear your badges if you are willing to taste and give feedback to anyone during the informal session.
Beer Swap
Anyone who wishes to swap beer at the meeting, please bring your labelled bottles and deposit them in the container provided. Usual rules apply:
- 1 bottle in, 1 bottle out.
- Label should identify brewer, strength and broad style category. Handwritten labels ok too.
- Bottles to be taken out during the break.
- Anything left at the end of the meeting is a free for all.
- Good beer only.
