Today, 10AM-4PM
This sounds like a fun event at Steve Harvey’s house: I would like to invite my golden neighbors interested in learning more about brewing at home to my place this Saturday May 5th to an American Homebrewers Association “Big Brew Day” event. I’m part of a small club of homebrewers in Golden and we’ll all be present and using a variety of methods to show some of the different approaches to brewing. Homebrewers like us will be doing the same at Big Brew Day events across the country and around the world in the spirit of promoting this awesome hobby. Even if you are not ready to start brewing but are just interested to learn more about how it’s done, stop in and get an idea of what goes into making great beer at home. We’ll be brewing from 10am-4pm, stop in anytime if you can. I’m located at 412 Boyd St. (map).
