The winter comp will be judged this coming Sunday, 27th June, at ETKG. Entry registration will close at 5 PM Friday, so don’t delay – head to the competition portal now to register your entries. Please also update your profile in the portal to indicate if you can judge or steward. If you can’t make it to ETKG Sunday, drop your entries off at SA Brewing by midday Saturday.

August Hop talk
At next month’s August meeting, we have Stuart Binnion from Silver Springs Hops coming along to talk about growing your own hops. Given the hoppy theme of the meeting, it would be great to pair it with a hoppy beer. If you have something you can bring along, let us know and we’ll gift you some free hops in return (as well a points towards Brewer of the Year)
Keg King Kegscale offer
Keg King is releasing a new product called Kegscale that tracks how much beer you have in a keg. It’s similar to the now-discontinued Plato Keg that I have demoed at a few meetings. See a short video here. Keg King is offering the club a bulk buy price of $70 each (minimum order 20 units). If you are interested in this offer, email the club.
If you have any suggestions on other bulk buys you would like the club to consider, let us know!
