Teach A Friend to Home Brew Day
1 November 2008
Snordog Brewery participated as an AHA registered site for the Teach a Friend to Home Brew event. Five new brewers showed up for a demonstration of kit and all grain brewing. We made an English Mild kit from Williams Brewing and an all grain pale ale. A number of basic brewing references, brewing magazines, and supply catalogs were available for perusal. We also prepared a demonstration of the different kinds of grain and hops used in brewing. Newcomers were offered the opportunity to participate in all phases of the brewing operation.
