October Events

Three things to think about this month:

  1. What are you entering in the homebrew competition? Account registration opens today at nbabrewcomp.com with entries opening next month.
  2. What are you going to order at Under Pressure Brewing? The #TaproomTakeover will be there this month (tomorrow!) for some social time.
  3. What kind of gadgets could be 3D printed to help with brewing?

The monthly education topic will look at some ideas!

Cheers!

September Events

Cooler weather still means brewing and sharing beers outside! This month we have a few things going on:

  • Taproom Takeover at Northbound Smokehouse on the first Thursday
  • Monthly meeting with unmalted and cereal grain experiment on the third Thursday
  • Rock The Hops @ Brew For Good @ Rock The Block @ East Side Neighborhood Services on Sat Sep 27 (https://www.esns.org/nordeast-rock-the-block-2025)

Come check things out — and bring a tasting glass! Cheers!

August Education: Omega Yeast Guest Speaker

Our friends at Omega Yeast will be dialing into the meeting this month as the kick-off to the meeting, so get in early to grab a seat and learn something about yeast and fermentation.

Every monthly meeting has an education or experiment component where we share knowledge and ideas in ways that are open to any brewer — first-time through advanced. Everyone is welcome to join our meetings, share some homebrew, and meet new folks. Come on by this month and say hello!
East Side Neighborhood Services, Northeast Minneapolis, Thu Aug 21, 7-9pm

August Events

Congratulations to Aaron D and Carl B for their wins at the Summer Party!! Aaron’s Azacca pale ale took home the low gravity prize and Carl’s brisket was a hit for lunch! The Winter Party is coming up in about six months, so fine-tune your high gravity beverages (>8% ABV, brewed in 2025) and chili recipes to take home the next set of awards!

This month we will be talking with celebrating National IPA Day at Barrel Theory for the monthly Taproom Takeover. Later, chatting with Omega Yeast at the monthly meeting about yeast and fermentation. Check ’em out!

Cheers!

July Education: Off-Flavor Sensory Training

Next week at the monthly meeting we are going to take some clean, fresh beer and spike it with off-flavor kits for some sensory training. We will also talk about recent and upcoming events, like the Summer Party on Sat Jul 19, and other club business.

Feel free to stop by! If the weather is nice, we will be under the pavilion behind the ESNS parking lot (like the photo here!).
Cheers!

This month we will be spending some time outside:

  • on the patio at Luce Line Brewing for #TaproomTakeover
  • under the pavilion at ESNS for the monthly meeting with off-flavor sensory education
  • at Steve’s house for the Summer Party

Put on your sunscreen and grab a tasting glass! Everyone is welcome to join NBA events and meetings any time. Feel free to stop by or reach out if you have any questions. Do you want feedback on your homebrewed beer, mead, cider, or wine? We are good at that!
Cheers!
