Idaho Falls Beer Club

Howdy,

Just a note to let you know we are still around.

Now that the beer fest is over we will be getting back to club business.  We are working on a baseball game, a judging class and the state fair homebrew contest.  The date of the baseball outing will be coming soon.

The judge class will be starting soon.  I need to find a place and get some times.  There will be about 4 or 5 sessions between now and the end of August.  The exam is tentatively scheduled for August 23.  This will allow all those that take the test to judge the Eastern Idaho State Fair Homebrew Competition.  The sessions will concentrate on beer tasting and evaluation.  We will assign reading on the BJCP web site and then answer questions and discuss the material at the next meeting.

Many of you have expressed interest in the class so here’s your chance.   Send me a note if you would like to take the class or if you would just like to take the exam.  If you are going to take the class the first assignment is to go to BJCP.org and read the study material in the EXAM CENTER – Exam (interim) Study Guide.  It would be helpful to print out a set of the newest Style guideline.  Shortly after the Forth of July weekend we will meet.

Watch for a note on the times and places.  Go to the web site (HDBA.org) for updates.

See you soon, Bob
