Hi folks!

First of all, I'd like to thank Matt S. for throwing a spectacular party for our club picnic yesterday. If you missed it, you really missed out. A good time was had by all and it only drizzled for a few moments.

The Humane Society Brewfest is going to be held on October 1, one day before our next business meeting. We will need some people to brew and some to serve for the fest. If you would be able to do either (or both!) please This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .

Also, we need a brewer for the September 7 Club Brew. If you would be willing to volunteer, please This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it as soon as possible.

Thanks!

Your beloved President

Update: Thanks to all the people who volunteered to brew and serve. You guys rule!

Home Brews Now Legal to Sell in Minnesota PDF Print E-mail

ST. PAUL, Minn. - It is now legal for home brewers in Minnesota to sell their beverages and concoctions to the public, as long as they are brewed in the basement of a building.

Gov. Tim Pawlenty signed the "basement brewing" bill Thursday. Early laws allowed home brewing for personal use, but prohibited people from selling their drinks. Many had concerns about moisture and mildew often found in basements.

Under the new law, the Minnesota Department of Agriculture will review spaces and issue permits to those that pass muster.

This law covers the brewing of everything from beer to drink syrups, bitters, kombucha and other carbonated drinks.

Some start-up breweries in Minnesota got their start with home brewing. Fulton Beer started in a southwest Minneapolis basement in 2007, eventually moving into a garage. The young brewers started selling their beer to the public in 2009, officially establishing Fulton Beer, which is brewed using the facilities of Sand Creek Brewery in Black River Falls, Wisconsin.

 We need to write to Wisconsin's Gov., and get this passed as well. It would be awesome to get this passed for Wine too!

 -Matt
