SF Beer Week
Very successful Meetups this beer week. On Feb 11th at the Firestone Walker tap takeover at Gourmet Haus Staudt, we filled a table with members and spilt many of the beers as they were mostly over 10%. Smaller events occurred at Clandestine on the 16th, tasting some of their stronger beers. And on the 17th was ShaKa, where they have added a large new tasting room and two new beers on tap since the club went there for a meeting last year. Lincoln was the winner for showing up to all the events.
Events
- Good interest in the s27 wort buy. The timing sped up to potentially occurring the day of our March 14th meeting. 10 people is the target. Pale Ale wort. I will check if there is a maximum participant and will keep people posted.
Discussion
- Tony brought up RO water with a plan to make a hazy. Discussion let that most do RO and many use home system. Discussed setups and systems
- Tony brought up the beer stone clogging during his stout brewing. Discussion started about how to clean it, one just bought a new stone instead. Web says boil PBW to clean, followed up with boiling clean water to rinse. Some rinse in starsan
Beers brought
- Citra IPA (Ross)
- 7 year old imperial stout (Charles)
- Left Red Hand Rye Stout (Tony)
