As usual the meeting will start at 7PM. I plan on being there around 6:30 for those that want to show up early and buy a pint or two. We won’t have a guided tour but those that arrive early can take a self guided tour.
The plan is to have one of the owners give a brief talk about starting up the brewery. Hopefully this is of interest. Then we will get to normal club activities.
We will be meeting in Cary this month at the following location:
The Oxxford Hunt Clubhouse in Cary

Jarrad is planning to talk about the re-outfitting of the club big brew equipment.

There might not be enough chairs so please bring something to sit on just in case. We’ll see how it goes for seating.
Please feel free to bring homebrew. Anyone bringing homebrew needs to bring it to the tour door not the bar entrance. The homebrew is not allowed upstairs but we can do our tasting downstairs. Please arrive early to buy a pint or two and/or after the meeting buy a pint or two.

The date will be Saturday, Aug. 6th, 9:30am at Todd’s house. Address and phone number will be on the forum or contact Todd via the email address below..
Set up will start early if anyone wants to get a head start on the heat. The CARBOY Homebrew club will again provide yeasts, yeast nutrients, brats and burgers. Please remember to bring a lawn chair and something to add to a brat plate like baked beans, potato salad, chips, a desert, etc. Also, there will be plenty of good mead and beer to sample while we’re brewing. Feel free to bring some of your favorite beverages to share. We wouldn’t want you to get dehydrated!
Regarding honey: Either wildflower or orange blossom will cost $35 for a 15#/1.25 gallon share. Please reserve your honey as early as possible. If there is enough demand, another bucket can still be ordered.
Email Todd at wenzelt [AT] netzero [DOT] net if you want to brew OR VIEW so I can get a decent head count for the brats.
