Come celebrate National Homebrew Day May 7
Do you like beer? Silly question, but if you like real beer, May 7 has been designated as National Homebrew Day. German Club board member Andy Marso is an avid homebrewer, and has invited everyone to his house to celebrate the fine art of home brewing. There will be demonstrations of the brewing process, as well as food (bring something along!), camaraderie, and of course, beer!
Come to 4021 Minnekahta Dr. (Just off canyon lake drive, four streets north of Jackson blvd.) this Saturday; things will start around noon. Call Andy or Jayne at 718-9557 for more info. We hope to see you there!
