Aug 26 - 28, 2011

What can I say, another great BrewersFest so once again we're doing it.

This year I'm replacing the dart tournament with a corn toss competition/tournament and maybe adding a couple of horseshoe pits, I haven't made up my mind on that.

Okay, this year there will be two bands - Generation II - 4:30p-6:30p and Rich Harper Band - 7p-9p

I don't know what happened, maybe I was having too good a time, but I don't have ANY pictures of the 2nd BrewersFest. If you have some pictures you'd like to share please email them to me or upload them to our facebook page.

What is BrewersFest?

BrewersFest is about brewing beer, period.

I brew beer, I like to brew beer and I like to drink homebrewed beer. If you are interested in getting together with homebrewers to brew beer, share techniques, recipes and (of course) beer you should come to BrewersFest.

When is it?

Saturday August 27, 2011

  • Friday is set-up

What's it cost?

There will be no charge on Saturday if you bring your equipment and brew beer. If you come early or if you're not brewing it's $20 per day- the price includes overnight camping and a commemorative sample glass.

What's going on?

We have the facilities to support a lot of brewing. Electric, water and sewage is available. There will be a deep sink available for clean-up or bring your own deep sink and set it up near your brew area. We have a big barn in the brewing area where we can brew in the event of rain. Ice and gallons of bottled water are sold in the camp store.

Porter House Brew Shop
  • Porter House Brew Shop will be here brewing beer. They will also be selling homebrew supplies in case you forget something or just need to replenish. If you call ahead to the brew shop at 724.368.9771 you can order your brewing ingredients/supplies and have it here when you're ready to brew. Grain orders must be placed by August 20th.

Why am I doing this?

Because, like I said, I like to brew beer. There isn't anything like this in the area.

There will be no selling of beer in any way, shape or form.

If you have any questions about BrewersFest or you want to reserve a spot to brew, call me at 724.368.8710.

The first rule of BrewersFest is...Talk about BrewersFest.
