Greetings Klobbers,

Just a reminder that we'll be having our December Meeting on Sunday Dec. 5th, 2-5pm. We'll be meeting at Final Gravity in downtown. This is our annual potluck, so please bring a dish to share. To pair with our potluck, we'll be featuring a tasting of strong Belgian ales, since they're very food friendly. Hope you can join in the festivites and cheer! Don't forget to wear your finest Christmas sweater and jingle bells & ornaments in your beard!

January 2022 Meeting - Sensory Training: Off Flavors.  Join us on Wednesday, January 19th at Final Gravity downtown, for a Sensory training event.  We'll have a sensory kit featuring 6 different off-notes commonly found in beer.  Sample Diacetyl, DMS, Acetic Acid, Skunk, Oxidized, & Acetaldehyde, and hone your tasting and evaluating ability. 

2022 Membership- We'll be taking membership renewals for the 2022 calendar year at the December Meeting. You can also renew your membership online at: 2022 Membership.

Klob Kup- Our club beer competition, the KLOB KUP, will be held in January 2022. We know everyone gets super busy around holiday time, so this year you get an extra month to brew! This beer competition is open any KLOB member. Each member is allowed up to three entries, and the beers can be any style in the 2015 BJCP Style Guidelines. You can drop them off to Tempo Vino Winery anytime, or you can bring them to the January meeting which will be the last day for entries. To enter, we’ll need two 12 oz bottles per entry with bottle ID tags attached with rubber bands, and you must also fill out an Entry/Recipe form per entry. Also, no other labels or identifying marks on the bottles, just plain crown cap and the bottle ID form. We do the judging blind, so we don’t know who’s beer is who’s. We’ll judge the beer in January, and have the results at the February Meeting. Trophy and prizes for the winners!
