HOPPY 2023! It’s January and, if you’ve been a member of the club for any length of time, you’ll know that this month we talk about H20, Aqua, Adam’s Ale (aka Water) and we are happy to have GTA Brews Member (and former club President) Eric Cousineau back to give us an updated presentation on water chemistry!

As we are now back to in-person meetings, please be respectful of the presenters and keep your chatting to a minimum.

It’s already December and this month we’ll be having our Year End Holiday Festive Shindig! There’s some announcements (Canadian Homebrew Championship winners will be announced!) that we’ll make but there’s no presentation, it’s strictly about socializing, wishing each other a great holiday season and sharing homebrew! We’re still at PEOPLE’S PINT BREWING CO. 90 Cawthra Ave in Toronto, but this meeting will not have a guest speaker and outside of standard announcements we’re simply going to mingle and talk beer and homebrewing!

As we are now back to in-person meetings, please be respectful of the presenters/announcements and keep your chatting to a minimum at that time.

This month we are having a SOCIAL meeting!!! While we love our educational presentations and hearing from beer industry professionals and homebrewers alike, we thought it was time to have a social meeting that’s outside of our “normal” social meetings (i.e. Holiday meeting in December)! We’re still at PEOPLE’S PINT BREWING CO. 90 Cawthra Ave in Toronto, but this meeting will not have a guest speaker and outside of standard announcements we’re simply going to mingle and talk beer and homebrewing!

This month we are SUPER excited to be back to IN PERSON meetings!!! And since we haven’t had a proper in person meeting in, oh, about 2+ years it’s going to be exciting since there’s a lot of new stuff to announce! Firstly, our “west” meeting location has changed to be at PEOPLE’S PINT BREWING CO. 90 Cawthra Ave in Toronto. Secondly, we’re stoked to hear People’s Pint’s head brewer and former GTA Brews member Pietro Caira talk to us about all things Mash related (well, almost all things – I don’t think Pietro’s going to talk about the “Monster Mash”. . . . . ) !
