Wish I could make it tonight. But I'll have Belgian Golden Strong Ale and Northern English Brown Ales ready for the next meeting.

Here are some ideas for the Name:

Radical Brewers of the Mid Bay - "Radical Brewers"
Epic Brewers of the Mid Bay - "Epic Brewers"
Radical Brewers of Annapolis
Epic Brewers of Annapolis

I like the idea of straying from the acronyms.

Even though I don't live in Annapolis, and I am not a Sailor at all, I vote for the sAlers.

I was reading into beer mythology to try to find a good or fun name.

Ægir was the sea god who brewed ale for all the gods. He hosted a party where Thor brought a kettle to brew in. The cups in Ægir's hall were always full, magically refilling themselves when emptied.

Ægirs Annapolis Hall of Homebrewers
(or something like that) We could be called Ægirs . That is if anyone knows how to pronounce it.


Also, The mythical Flemish king Gambrinus, is sometimes credited with the invention of beer.

The Gambrinus brewers of Annapolis

Gambrinus'

Just a thought.

Any chance someone could print off a few copies of the BJCP style guidelines for saison? I meant to do it at work but completely forgot. Here is the link:

I was gonna take notes, but I drank too much, so here's a brief recap.

We sampled quite a few commercial Saisons.

We designated a "trophy" for our club brewing competitions, the first bottle we opened as a club.

We moved on to home brewed saisons and then to whatever home brews members brought. My dreams were haunted by a black ipa and a roggenbier.

Next month is IPA month. There were quite a few people with one of those in the works, so we'll be bringing a few commercial samples and home brewed IPAs to the next meeting.

The next meeting may fall on the 2nd Thursday of June (the 14th) as there are 2 conflicts so far with the 3rd Thursday. We need to discuss that as a group and make sure that it works for everyone.

We briefly discussed the naming of the club but didn't decide on anything just yet.

I made fun of the Air Force for a while.

After this the night gets a little hazy. I think I also played with some dogs and ate short ribs.

All in all a very successful first meeting!

We all added our names to an email list that SuperSpy is going to send out at some point so we can move off of homebrewtalk.com for "official business."

Since the Air Force never actually goes to work, I imagine he'll have this done today.
