2nd Annual Women in Brewing Festival @Rubicon

Summer Big Brew at Doctor Scot’s Bring your rig, DOZE will provide some meat to grill.

Just a reminder that starting in April our meetings are moving to the Community Room at the Lindsay Wildlife Museum in Walnut Creek. This is a much larger space than we’ve had at B3 and it should be a lot more comfortable as our attendance continues to climb. Map & Directions

The April newsletter can be found here (also note there is a permanent link on the right hand navigation bar for newsletters – thanks Aaron).

Our first meeting in our new location: Lindsay Wildlife Museum 1931 First Ave, Walnut Creek, CA USA 94597 Google Map

The Bistro’s Hop Rhizome Festival Come to the Hop Rhizome Festival and buy some actual hop roots to grow your own – Saturday, April 12, 2008 – 11am we will have a wonderful selection of HOPPY beers on tap as well as BBQ and music all day. The Bistro in Hayward

B3’s Jon Plise warns us: If you are thinking about growing hops this year you have to order them on line (www.morebeer.com) as part of our pre-order sale.You’ve got about a week to do so. We’ve pretty much maxed out our supplier and we have the ability to up our order pending how many we sell during our pre-order. Whatever you order online at this point we cannot guarantee your order will be completely filled but you should get something to grow.

Club maven Erik has put together a PDF club newsletter. Grab yourself a copy.
