President's Message

Greetings Fellow MASH'ers,

Another month has almost slipped by.

Thanks to Augusto Gil for bringing in his very first batch of
homebrew for all of us to try. It was a very good Dry Stout with no off flavors at all. I remember my first 10 batches of so had so many off flavors it was hard to tell the beer from the bacteria. But I loved drinking it anyway.

Thats one of the great things about our Club. The opportunity to share our brewing experiences, good or bad. The "Big Brew" this year will be a great experiment with yeast types. Scott Graham has posted a request for your yeast preference so please let him know asap.

At our next meeting we will be finishing the details of the "Big Brew' at the Titanic, and our spring picnic. A big THANK-YOU to Jamie and the Titanic for sharing the opportunity to brew the "Big Brew" on their system with all of us MASH'ers.

One last thing. Please don't forget to bring a couple of homebrews to the next meeting, April, 25th, for John Boyles. to show some appreciation for letting our club meet at his establishment, The Thai Orchid restaurant.

Have a hoppy day,
Scott Ross
