Do you love great craft beer? Have you had thoughts of brewing your own but did not know how to get started? Well do we have the class for you!
The Maltose Falcons offer a Brew 101 course at the Home Beer Wine and Cheese Making Shop in Woodland Hills every second Tuesday of the month. This course is designed for the beginning brewer, and uses the basic equipment and ingredient kits sold at the shop.
The March club shop brew has been set for Sunday the 13th. Our Vice President, Steve Cook, and his Alewench Irene, will be leading this brew crew. They are planning an Southern English brown ale. Think along the lines of Newcastle Brown Ale, but this will be much better.
We are calling this beer the Drink-It Down Southern Brown Ale.
We will be brewing a large batch of Barleywine which will be used to fill the ~60 gallon Bourbon barrel the club aquired. The batch will actually be broken into two brewing sessions. The first 30 gallons will be brewed at the Shop on a date to be determined soon. Keep an eye out for the date posting.
The December shop brew has been scheduled for Sunday the 20th at 8:00 am. Jeremy Raub of Eagle Rock Brewery, and a long time Falcons member, will be leading the brew crew that day for his Black Mild Ale. This beer is one of the flag ship beers that Jeremy plans to have on tap at his brewery. Those of you who went to this years SCHF at Lake Casitas were able to taste this bad boy on tap. It is delicious!
Come join the club and learn the basics of homebrewing with the experts - Kent Fletcher and Nancy Gold will take you through the brewing process and help you learn what you need for a 5 gallon batch.
The November shop brew date has been set for Sunday the 15th at 8:00 am. Our president, Steve Cook, will be leading the brew crew. He will be brewing up an American pale ale. Think Sierra Nevada pale ale.
We have three spots open for this brew crew. You must be a current, paid in full Maltose Falcons member to participate on any brew crew. Membership will be verified prior to any notification of a spot on the crew.
The shop brew for October will be led by Kent Fletcher. He will be brewing up the annual Falcons Christmas ale, Falcon Noel. This is a pretty tasty beer to have around for the holidays.
