Home of the BrewNosers

Welcome to the Brewnosers! Our group started in 1986, with four guys getting together regularly to share their homebrew and interesting beers from around the world.
While the forums (and previously email lists) are now the easiest mode of communication, we still get together monthly to share and talk about beer. We'd love to have you join us.

What: Get together to share your homebrew wins (and fails), interesting beers from across the province, and around the world. We try to share beer that most of us would not have the ability to otherwise try. Special beers from the local breweries or brewpubs, out-of-province purchases, specialty beers from the private beer stores in HRM, etc. Snacks for sharing are welcome too. We talk about everything, from treating HRM water for an ESB recipe, to Bike lanes and Arduino programming. If you have questions about the brewing (or drinking) process, this is a great time to ask.
When: We get together on the second Tuesday of every month. Rule of thumb: 7:30 for 8pm start. Meetings can go till 11pm or 1am, depending on the month.
Where: Meetings are held at members' places most anywhere in the HRM. People will volunteer their spot a few days in advance; we don't always know where the meeting will be a week in advance, but know it will take place on the second Tuesday.
Who: You! And 6-20 other beer lovers. We will have a great mix of new homebrewers, though who have been brewing for 10+ years, commercial brewers, and those who just like to drink the results of their hard work.
How: That's up to you, but we strongly encourage carpooling, using Halifax Transit, or making other plans on how to get back home safe.

Don't worry if you don't have any "worthy" beer to bring, snacks are a welcome alternative.

Everyone is welcome to come, friends and partners are definitely welcome too! Look for the post with the meeting's date in the title to discuss the specifics of that month's meetup.

Can't make it on a Tuesday? How about hosting an "alternate meeting", and invite some us over, or set up a date at a local bar or brewpub? We're always looking for an excuse to get together and talk beer. Don't be shy.

What are you working on? Building a brewery for "The Mistress" (AKA the new brew kettle)?
