Club Meeting Thurs July 16 7:30 at Tortugo Brewery
I just wanted to send a quick reminder that we have our monthly meeting this Thurs at Tortugo at 7:30.
Summer Party!!
We now have a date and exciting location for the 2026 summer party.
Since the club cannot afford to subsidize a club trip to Italy, Dean will be returning to the US to host us! (well, perhaps he is here for other reasons, but narcissism lets me believe it is all about us).
The party will be happening on Saturday August 8, 2026 at Dean Sussman’s USA palazzo in the Pacific Palisades, 1310 Amalfi Drive, Pacific Palisades CA.
The party will start around 2 PM and continue on until late evening. The party is free for all Pacific Gravity members and their first guest; additional guests may attend for a small fee of $10. Kids are still free. Dean’s house has a large yard and a pool so all attendees are encouraged to bring a lawn chair and swim trunks (and towel) if they plan on going for a swim.
In honor of the 250th b-day of the country, the theme will be “All American BBQ” – Chef Ian and Sous-Chef Rob will of course be creating their legendary culinary masterworks, and the theme opens the door for many classic picnic/bbq sides for those participating in the pot-luck portion of the event. Note for food contributions, we will NOT have use of a kitchen for heating or cooling so please plan accordingly. Please label your food containers so that we can get them back to you.
We will of course have our traditional “best of party” homebrew beer and soda competitions, so be sure and bring your spectacular specimens (or at least “interesting entries”) for everyone to enjoy. If you plan to bring a keg, please email Carl at competitions@pacificgravity.com with the name of your beer/soda to help him keep the things flowing.
As always this event is run by the volunteers, your help is needed! Set up will be on Friday 8/7 at 6:30 pm and clean up on Sunday morning are especially necessary. The volunteer crew has always had a lot of fun while working and it is a great time.
If you have any questions about food, feel free to contact Chef Ian at MasterChef@pacificgravity.com or if you have question on volunteering you may contact Parker at President@pacificgravity.com
I hope to see you all Thursday!
Parker Waechter – President, Pacific Gravity Homebrewers
