Hello Sudzers,
For our April meeting, Lance Shaner, owner of Omega Yeast, joined us via Zoom. He discussed Omega Yeast’s history, operations, and their kveik, hybrid and bioengineered strains. In addition, Derek gave his treasurer’s report for 2021. And, last but not least, we tasted five great homebrews. Thanks to Stein’s and everyone who showed up!
Business:
– We’re still looking for volunteers to take over as club President, Vice President, and Competition Guru. Please let me or any other current officer know if you’re interested in any of these positions.
– Our next club brew will be Robert R.’s Biere de Noel. Three of us have volunteered to brew it.
