Seeking Hosts for the September Homebrew Walking Tour

The club is planning a walking tour for mid to late September. More details will come soon, but for now we are seeking anyone willing to host on the tour. On the tour our members and guests go for a walk on a (hopefully) sunny day to visit home breweries. It’s a fun way to check out how our neighbors are brewing, and a good opportunity to show off your gadgets, gizmos, and beer.
We generally do two groups of 20 people, or one group of 40 people, depending on the size of our host locations. If you are interested in showing off your brewery, please contact kendall@jerseycitybrewclub.com for details. The club will provide assistance with setting up, as well as any ice, CO2, cups, snacks, etc. Hosts can also join the rest of the tour for free.

Big Brew Day

For the address, please RSVP on Facebook, or emailjerseycitybrewclub@gmail.com. You can also check out the Slack channel. The event is by the intersection of Harmon St and Crescent Ave, in Jersey City.

Big Brew Day is an international celebration of homebrewing, with events all across the country brewing beer together to grow the hobby. This year’s recipe is a Blonde Ale, and we’ll be brewing a big batch of beer – 25 gallons! We plan to age the beer in a whiskey barrel from Corgi Spirits.

The event is open to all, and is a great opportunity for newcomers to experience brewing for the first time. Please invite your friends that are curious about brewing but haven’t yet taken the plunge. Mash starts at noon, but there is prepwork so feel free to show up early.
