The LBG welcomes homebrewers of all experience levels. Guild members enjoy a number of benefits with their membership, including access to rental equipment, bulk buying and a library of resources, special discounts at local stores, sponsored beer trips and tours and more.
The Lawrence Brewers Guild, established in 1995, is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the enjoyment of homebrewing and to promote the responsible use of alcoholic beverages. The guild meets the second Thursday of every month for a business meeting, featured beer tasting and seminar.
The LBG hosted its monthly Hoppy Hour on May 5 at Henry T’s. Members got to try the club’s weizenbock collab with Yankee Tank Brewing. Hoppy Hours are typically the first Thursday of the month and are open to LBG members and friends and those interested in joining the club, homebrewing and craft beer.
Several members donated and served beer at the LBG’s booth at the Parkville Microbrew Festival on April 30. The event featured 50+ breweries and several homebrew clubs.
The LBG met April 14 for its regular meeting. Matt Bechtold led the seminar on brewing lagers. Biermeister Leigh Keck led the tasting with a beer and Girl Scout cookie pairing.
Big thanks to Fields & Ivy for inviting members John McClure, Dave Oshel, Travis Johnston and Micheal Platt out for a collab brew day on April 13! They brewed a lavender honey saison.
