2nd Homebrew Club meeting
I reviewed our first meeting and I gave us an 'excellent' and 'not creepy' rating. That, in and of itself, should entice you to come to our next meeting. Did I mention it is at The Brewhaus? Swing by, have some good commercial beers, have some good homebrews. Learn how easy it is to homebrew and how easy it is to produce some quality beer. Did I mention how easy it is? It is.
But it is a hobby that can and will grow with your own knowledge of making beer. You may wish to invest your time in learning such exciting topics as pH control, yeast propagation, neutron star emissions (oops, wrong hobby). You don't have to have a degree in chemistry or microbiology but at the upper echelons of homebrewing it helps. Did I mention how easy it is though?
Some people think it might even save you money. The Simple Dollar had a nice rundown on startup costs compared to purchasing commercial microbrews. Once you get into a regular brew schedule, you will save money brewing your own beer.
Soon you too will dream and scheme on how you might open your own brew pub in an old abandoned ice house near 9th street.
Next meeting! March 12th @ 7:00 pm. The Brewhaus.

Next Homebrew Club meeting
The next meeting of the Prairie Schooners, Springfield's homebrew club, is 7:00 pm, Thursday, March 12th @ The Brewhaus.
The first meeting had 15+ interested parties. That is more than a baker's dozen, yo.
It was nice to sit about and talk shop and taste brews (both home and commercial) for a few hours. There were some old hands and some shiny new and new future brewers. Beer is sampled by all so, if you've had an interest in trying a homebrew to see how good one can taste, swing on by on March 12th and find out a little more about the wonderful world of homebrewing.

One Week til Homebrew Club!
First Rule of Homebrew Club is 'You Talk About Homebrew Club'.
Obligatory Fight Club reference out of the way, I can now get back to the topic at hand. Once again I am here to gently remind you and generate interest in, the resurrected, reformulated and recombobulated Prairie Schooners, Springfield's own homebrew club.
When: Thursday, February 19th, 7:00 pm
Where: The Brewhaus
Who: All homebrewers past, present and future
To quote a line from Poltergeist, 'All are welcome. All welcome, Go into the light'*.
*= The slight difference in that we are not creepy old dudes (most of us) and 'the light' equals the Brewhaus.
