Learn2Brew - Sat Nov 6 @ Amsterdam Brewery

Want to see how to make your own beer?
Toronto’s largest homebrewing club can show you how!

Learn 2 Brew Day occurs on the first Saturday in November, when new, and not so new homebrewers around the world are encouraged to learn how to brew or teach someone how to brew.

We'll have onsite homebrewing demonstrations by over twenty different brewers, each with their own unique style and approach.
Learn how to brew, to build a setup to match your needs, and budget!

Saturday, November 6th from 10am until 6pm
Amsterdam Brewing Co. 21 Bathurst St, Toronto

If you can make macaroni and cheese, you can homebrew; it's that simple.

Last year's event was a lot of fun... a great chance to learn all about the brewing process, and see Ontario's *real* "craft brewers" in action!

This year, there will even be a "celebrity" team.... some of Toronto's best Beer Bloggers will attempt to put their knowledge forward, and create a brew of their own.

The Breweriana Society will also be there, with historical displays of some great Canadian products from our past...

So please feel free to come down and join the SOBs as we show off our favourite subject!

(If nothing else, you can always grab a couple of six-packs to take home...)


Cheers

I'm definitely going. Now that I have a house and some basement space I want to get some advice and see how its really done before I make the investment.

Man this sounds awesome. I've been wanting to learn how to brew my own for a long time. It sounds like this would be a great place to start.

I have got to say. This event was a lot of fun, and I'm not just saying that because of the fact that I ended up mooching supplies from everyone to brew my beer.

I wrote a little bit about brewing a Christmas beer over at my blog. The link is in my sig. I'm wondering whether to have a Christmas beer naming contest.
