Our October meeting is being held at Great South Bay Brewery in Bayshore on October 17.  25 Drexel Drive, Bayshore, NY

Entries for the October Club-Only Competition will be due. 

Nominations for the Officer Position elections (which will occur at the November meeting) will be open.

Available on tap will be What The Saison, brewed by club members AJ & Joe D’Amico and Russ & Danielle Malone (if it doesn’t sell out before then). What The Saison was brewed at Big Brew Day in May (which was held at GSB) and was then selected to be re-brewed by the original brewers and GSB and has been submitted to the Pro-Am competition being held at the Great American Beer Festival.

As always, the sharing of homebrew is strongly encouraged. Additionally, there will be a feedback table staffed by BJCP judges for immediate, interactive, constructive feedback. Have a question about your beer? Can’t pinpoint why it’s not coming out the way you’d like? Not sure what category to enter a beer into for competition? Bring them down and have our judges discuss your beer with you.

Our July meeting will be held at Barnshed Brewing in Bethpage. As always, bring your homebrew to share with other members. And there will be a BCJP-Judge staffed feedback table for immediate, interactive constructive feedback on your homebrew.

Reminder: Entries for the July club-only competition are due at the meeting.
