No we aren’t promoting Hillary or Trump, the SAAZ officer elections are coming up in December. \u00a0This club doesn’t run itself. We need awesome volunteers like YOU to be a part of the team that plans our events for the year. Any other interested members should contact President Dan Shirah<\/a>\u00a0to\u00a0be included on the ballot. Also be sure to attend the December meeting to vote.

\u00a0Announcing 2017 SAAZ Intraclub Brew Challenge<\/h1>\n

Back by popular demand, SAAZ is continuing a quarterly Intraclub Brew Challenge. We would like to encourage more brewing in the club and provide more feedback to our brewers. Each quarter the club will announce the challenge ingredient\/style and requirements. Members will need to sign up to participate since SAAZ will be providing a special ingredient. Brewers will then have 3 months to brew the beer and then bring to a meeting for feedback and competition. Prizes will be awarded.<\/h3>\n

CHALLENGE #1 –\u00a0Hop Salad\"hoppy<\/h2>\n

Get your hops sacks ready and your boil kettles clean!\u00a0 SAAZ has been given a variety of\u00a0hops\u00a0and will be giving it away to our club members!<\/h3>\n

Here are the details: Starting at our SAAZtoberfest party, SAAZ members who have paid their 2017 dues are eligible to receive 3-4\u00a0oz of mystery\u00a0hops. \u00a0Members will\u00a0brew a whatever style they desire but must use the hops they pull from the bag. You may supplement with additional hops if needed.\u00a0Then, at our January meeting, we will have some expert beer judges\u00a0evaluate the beers.<\/h3>\n

The amount of hops is limited, and they will be available on a first come, first serve basis, per the guidelines above.\u00a0 Now get ready to do some brewing!<\/h3>\n
