Since opening, a lot of home brewers have suggested that we should run a homebrew nights @ The Local Taphouses.. Personally, while I don't have the time to home brew, I LOVE sampling what some of our customers are doing. That's what prompted us to sponsor the home brewer of 2009 to brew - with Mountain Goat - his Spicy Duck's Nuts (Spiced Ale) and we hope to offer the same opportunity this year..
We've now got a little time to think about the home brewer night and seek your suggestions. We're thinking they could start off quarterly.. They could also be brew-to-a-style format or freestyle brewing where you brew what you want! Either way, we thought it would be fun for us and others if homebrewers who drink @ The Local TH (or not!) rocked up and shared their beers around. Perhaps there could be a small charge then divide 100% of that up between those homebrewers who bring be the beer.
Anyway, suggestions are very welcome at this stage!
