Greetings members, First off, thanks to everyone who braved the weather and came out for the 2016 KLOB Roast! We had a wonderful time with great food and great beer. Hope to see you all again next year at the Roast!

In other news, Hop Head Farms is having their annual farm tour this Sunday at 10am. The location is at 4630 W. Hickory Road, Hickory Corners, MI 49060. This is right in the middle of their harvest time, so it's a good opportunity to see how a hop farm operates. Normally, they charge for tours but KLOB members get in for free! And if that's not enough to encourage you to visit, pellitized hops will be for sale at a special price for members as well. Feel free to bring beer to drink too. http://hopheadfarms.com/

Bell's Homebrew Competition: Bell's annual homebrew competition is coming up next month, September 10th. Be sure to get there early to sign up for the free wort. Let's have a big KLOB turn out this year and hopefully one of our members wins it! All the contest rules & info can be found here: Bell's Homebrew Competition.
