Style of the Month

Below are the style of the month plans for club meetings including plans for each Best of Meeting competition.  If you would like to host a commercial tasting for any given month, contact Dean Sussman at [email protected] to volunteer.  Months that have club parties ( holiday and summer ) do not have a style of the month as there is no meeting.

*The club’s summer party will be held in July 2023.  All styles welcome.  No styles of the month will be designated.

**The club’s holiday party will be held in December 2022.  All styles welcome.  No styles of the month will be designated.

***Volunteers for commercial tastings are encouraged to interpret the categories broadly.  For example, for the “Czech Lager” category, the beers need not be produced in the Czech Republic; an American-made “Czech-style pilsner” beer would be an excellent choice.  In addition, the club strongly encourages volunteers for commercial tastings to offer samples from (and support!) our local breweries.
