Our monthly Club Shop Brew is set for Sunday August 19th at 8:00 a.m. Our Club’s Secretary Cullen Davis with the assistance of none other than our esteemed president Nancy Gold will be leading this crew with the brewing of an English Dark Ale. The lead brewers seem to be in a creative mode for this brew (Cullen’s forte) and decided to brew a beer somewhere in the vicinity of an English Stout and a Porter.
All Brew Crew members will be brewing on the Falcons 30 gallon all grain brew system located at the Home Beer Wine and Cheese Making Shop in Woodland Hills. Members will participate in all aspects of the brewing process from measuring and crushing the grain to clean up. Each participant will then take home 5 gallons of wort to ferment at home at a really cheap price. (Approx. $12 each) It’s a great deal for a beer like this! So remember to bring some cash to cover your share of the brew and a carboy or a bucket to put it in. To be eligible to be on any Brew
Crew, you must be an up to date, paid in full Maltose Falcons member. Your membership status will be verified prior to you being confirmed of a spot on the Crew.
You must email me your full name and contact number (cell #’s are best) at publicity@maltosefalcons.com so I can confirm your membership and contact you if there is any problems with your membership or with the brew itself. No exceptions.
We welcome new members, or members who have not yet been on a Brew Crew, to sign up for this event. If you have been on a Brew Crew within the past 3 months, you are not eligible to be on this Crew. Signups are at the end of this event blog in the sign up section. No sign ups will be accepted via the yahoogroups, email, etc. There are only 6 spots on the Crew, one of which is Cullen’s and one is Nancy’s. So there is only 4 slots open and signups are on a first come, first serve basis and tend to fill quickly.
Of course anyone who is interested in observing the all grain brewing process is welcome to come by the shop to hang out and party with the Crew. Beer and snacks to share are always welcome. Make it a part of your day to stop on by to support the Club and the Crew.
Cheers!
Steve
Publicity Director

Nancy has to work the shop on the brew day, so she will yield her spot to someone who wants it. Sign up if it's open!
Anyone else's batch of this get infected? Mine has a pelicle starting to form :/ I dont want to dump this but risking infecting my plstic siphon, etc isnt really worth it. I guess the positive thing is it only cost me $12
No infection in my portion. We should all be finished out and in keg or bottle by now though.
