[COHO] Sunday group brew and AHA mead making day

[brett thomas]

Sorry for the last minute notice, but due to the generosity of our club members it took a while to come up with the perfect location for our upcoming group brew.  Our options included Ryan's stately residence in Crooked River, Tim's place (again), Mike's, or Dylan's.  The consensus led us to Dylan's residence at 2094 NW Lakeside Place, mainly due to his centralized location, and his experience in making meads.

The event was originally planned as a second pre-Hop Madness brewing event with an IPA being brewed, until we noticed it was the official AHA mead making day.  Just as we did last year, COHO shall attempt to make another great mead, along with a hop packed IPA for our upcoming event.  We'll be using Cascade and Sterling hops that were donated by Wildfire Brewing Company, along with some mystery bittering hops for the IPA.  Madame Sergeant at Arms Jenn has volunteered the American 2 row for the brew.  For the mead we ask for any donations of honey that may be available as Dylan formulates the critical recipe.  If anyone sees or knows of any great bulk fruit deal please give us a shout as we may need up to 10 or 15 pounds of fresh fruit for this intensive project, some of which will be destined for AHA mead competitions. 

We'll have a keg of something great out there with us, and I imagine we may even fire up the grill.  We realize that there are a ton of activities going on this weekend (as there are most other summer weekends), but hope to see everyone out there.  For further directions and info please call me at 948-4504, or call Dylan at 390-8408.

Cheers!
