Learn

We accomplish our mission by focusing on learning, sharing, and growing as brewers. At our meetings, we host several recurring features like club competitions, brewer’s duels, MASH Lab triangle tests, sensory training tests, and invite brewers of all levels to share tips, experiments, and failures. We host learn-to-brew demonstrations for the community as well as special barrel projects for our members, and we encourage brewers to partner for mentor brew days and host tastings, pairings, and to informally meet up.

As part of our commitment to sharing our knowledge with the community, and to make it easier for members to find handy tips, we share some helpful resources below.
