Hey Klobbers, we have a club bar night coming up this Thursday! Join us 7pm at Tibbs Brewing Company. Members get $1 off all full pour beers for the night. The basement will be open to KLOB with Kevin hosting tours of the brewery. Come on out for a pint, bring your friends and introduce them to Tibbs and KLOB! Anyone not going to NHC, here's your chance to have some fun in Kalamazoo that week.
What is Big Brew??? Well, Big Brew is an annual event that gets home brewers together the first Saturday in May to brew up a ton of beer! In 1988, May 7 was announced before Congress as National Homebrew Day. The American Homebrewers Association (AHA) created AHA Big Brew as an annual event to celebrate National Homebrew Day around the world.
Join us for a KLOB Pub Crawl this Saturday, 4/23, 5pm. We've chosen out some bars and breweries that have outdoor seating to take advantage of the weather. We’ll start at 5pm at Arcadia Brewing, head to Bell’s around 6pm, Old Dog at 7pm, and finish at Shakespeare’s at 8. Stop by when ever you can, it’s informal, it’s open to everyone so bring your family & friends! Wear your KLOB logo apparel if you have it.
Our monthly meeting is coming up on Monday, April 18th, 7pm at Boatyard Brewery. This month's topic will be Super Hoppy IPA's presented by Trevor from One Well! Hope you can join us.
Happy National Beer Day! I hope you all were able to take today off of work and enjoy some brew.
We've got a few items to share with you:

The 2016 Bus Trip is here! This year we are doing it differently, so fill your pints and pack your bags, because we are going on an overnight to Traverse City! We are renting a 28 passenger bus, visiting breweries on the way up, all over town and on the way home. The price per person (member and non-member) is $115. This will cover the bus and your overnight stay. We may even tie in some wineries if time permits.
