On Saturday, February 1, John Kaufman is going to be administrating a BJCP Mead Tasting Exam. You don't need to be a beer judge to take it, as long as you pass the mead on-line entrance exam you can be a mead judge.
To help prepare people for the exam, we'll be conducting three Mead Judging classes at the Home Wine and Beer Shop. All will be on Wednesday at 7PM and be on Jan. 8, Jan. 15, and Jan. 22. John Kaufman, John Aitchison, and Roger Taylor will be leading the class--and we can promise you plenty of great and unusual meads in the process.

On Sunday, August 23 we will be having another sour beer tasting at the shop. Lambics, Flanders Reds/Browns, Berliner Weiss, and Wild Ales are all welcome (along with those who bring them). Homebrewed or Commercial. We will be doing a shop brew the same day (John Aitchison will be leading a lambic brew). The plan is to start tasting during the long boil and wort chlling process--most likely around noon. If you like sour beers, just come at noon (or earlier if you are on the shop brew). Matt will be sending out the sign up information on that soon.
More details coming soon - but this year's Mead Extravaganza hosted by the inimitable Bruce Brode will be returning on May 31st. The tasting will start a little early this year to facilitate an earlier finishing time at 12
