There was no shortage of great home brew or Yahoos at Maltose Express on March 3. The shop celebrated its 27th anniversary by hosting its Spring open house, and owners Tess and Mark welcomed our club in to share our beers and recruit new members.
While this wasn’t an official club meeting, our turnout was terrific and we had a beer menu that required two sheets to fit the entire list. Even better, we met some promising prospects whom we hope to see at future meetings.
Thanks to all those who showed up and poured and/or shared beer. And an even bigger thanks to Andy for doing the heavy lifting by organizing everything.
In Case You Missed It
Jaime welcomed a small group of Yahoos to his home for our February meeting. There was no theme for this meeting, but that didn’t stop members from bringing along some impressive commercial beers, as well about 10 home brews for blind tasting.
The group sampled some of Jaime’s turkey chili along with some choice commercial offerings from Hudson Valley, Tree House NEBCo and Counter Weight before blind tasting kicked off.
We tasted a lot of terrific beers, which all scored well.
