Once again we are happy to announce our partnership with Bell's General Store in order to host another AHA Big Brew event this Saturday, May 3rd! For those not already familiar, Big Brew coresponds with National Homebrew Day and is sponsored by the American Homebrewers Association. The idea is to celebrate all things homebrew by trying to gather as many brewers together to simultaneously brew as many gallons of beer as possible. We hope to have all-grain, extract and everything in between going that day. 

Festivities will begin at approximately 10am as our all-grain get started and will go through the afternoon. At noon there will be a toast that will be held all the way across the country. We will be arranging all the brew rigs in the courtyard west of the General Store. Even if you don't brew yourself, this is perfect opportunity to see how the process and learn more about how the beer you enjoy is made. Likewise, you can invite friends, family and co-workers to introduce them to the fine art of homebrewing. If you are interested in volunteering to brew that day, please contact us and we'll get you all set up. There are three AHA-provided recipes but you can choose to brew anything your heart desires. Read more about the event at the AHA's website.

If you are planning on brewing, we suggest bringing the following:

• Hoses and splitters in order to share the limited water source
• Extension cords and power strips if you need electricity for pumps or other tools
• Shelters or canopies in case of bad weather (Bell's has a couple they can share)
