Our President Ian will be be pouring commercial samples of our styles of the month Wheat and Witbier. And, of course, if you bring your homebrews to share, we will have a full slate of enjoyment.

STYLES OF THE MONTH
Greetings Pacific Gravity!
Our next club meeting is on June 16, 2022 at Tortugo Brewing Co, located at 916 W Hyde Park Blvd, Inglewood, CA 90302. (424) 227-9963
We will get started about 7:30 PM.
We will discuss upcoming events, the next First Friday and the Summer Party!
We have restarted the ‘style of the month’ effective with the May meeting, which you can find here. For June, the official beer is Pale Ale. Of course, at any meeting, any beer you have brewed will be gladly accepted and drank!
Our monster brew last month at Smog City Brewing was a rousing success. Seventy-five batches were sold using a modified recipe of Little Bo Pils. We hope to see many of these beers with a diversity of modifications at summer party! Thank you Porter for a great time!
Results have been release for the 2022 Mayfaire homebrew competition. Congratulations to Carl Townsend for his first place at IPAs with his “Let the Wookie Win” black IPA, and for his second place ribbon for Czech Dark Lager. Full results can be found at https://competitions.maltosefalcons.com/2022Mayfaire/
We had a great showing for our First Friday on Second Saturday at All Season Brewing in Korea town. The IPAs were quite solid as was the fruited Berliner weisse. We wish to thank the team for their recent sponsorship of Pacific Brewers Cup.
It is gratifying that we have resumed gathering in person, but as always we encourage and expect everyone will be vigilant about their own health to ensure the groups safety! Please observe all safety precautions and stay home if you do not feel well.
I hope to see you all at our meeting!
Cheers,
Ian Fraser
President

Greetings Pacific Gravity! Greetings Pacific Gravity, I Hope you all are staying well and safe. We have good news and bad news.Due to the rising COVID numbers and out of an abundance of caution the board has decided to postpone the Summer Party tentatively scheduled for August 28, to its new date of October 2nd, 2021. Instead of a “summer” party, we will now call it our “OKtoberfest” party! We will have an Oktoberfest theme and foods. If my plan comes together we will even have a special surprise in store!Because we decided to postpone the summer party we also decided to pivot and have a club meeting this month. However, the board also decided to hold this meeting as “virtual” to avoid spreading the Delta variant to our members. We hope that we can resume ‘in person’ meetings next month but we are monitoring the situation as a day to day and will decide based on the CDC guidance given. For August 19, we will be holding our meeting virtually at Tortugo Brewing. Joe has generously put together a tasting pack of beers he has ready to go. Thank you for putting this together for us on the fly Joe! Tortugo Brewing Co. 916 W. Hyde Park Blvd. Inglewood, CA 90302 (424) 227-9963The tasting pack will be a 4-pack of 16 OZ cans of the following:
All 5 beers for a special club price of $25! All the beers will be available starting on Saturday, August 14, 2021. I hope to see you all then! Cheers, Ian Fraser President, Pacific Gravity |
