Hello people! Hold on to your hats, the March winds have blown us quickly into planning for the summer. To start with thank you to all the Overmountain Homebrewers members for their participation in Shamrocks and Shenanigans! Our first member’s only comp went of as a complete success. To end the fabulous day we had, we helped Wolf Hills celebrate their St. Patrick’s Day event. As soon as we can the Comp tab will be updated with results. Now what do we have going on in the News? To start with we have tasting glasses in, one is free for all members. If you want to get an extra (or two) check with Josh Gibson. Then we also had an order for t-shirt come in. If you haven’t gotten yours please see Donna Dingus. We had a great presence at the Thirsty Orange Beer Festival in JC. Please give up many thanks to TIM JENKINS for bringing home BEST IN SHOW! Wow, we have to watch him; he is on fire. Then right after the Thirsty Orange a group of members visited another wonderful beer festival in Hickory NC: Hickory Hops. Let me tell you that was a blast. Pictures will be in the Gallery soon. And now we as a club are preparing for Big Brew! This is the AHA National Hombrewers day. Please feel come and join us at Wolf Hills, Saturday May 5, 2012. We will have brewing demos and brewers on site for Q&A. We plan for a Pot Luck Picnic, so bring some food/drink to share and come join us. That’s all for now folks. Check back soon as we are bound to get into some more fun this summer. And if you are interested in all that you have read or see here on our site, don’t forget to come out and join us for a meeting.

Finally got the gallery and contact form up and I also made some tweaks to the event calendar. Still a work in progress, but things are coming together a bit better. Suggestions for what to put on the site are always welcome.

NEWS is finally here! Thank you for taking the time to visit Overmountain Homebrewers website. You are currently on our news page so now we can give you some news of our club. Overmountain Brewers is a Homebrew Club that is just starting up. We met for the first time on September 30, 2011. Wolf Hills located in Abingdon VA hosted us and wow what a turn out! It was a surprise that there was so much interest in homebrewing right here in this area. At this meeting there was a lot to go through- as with anything, the club had to get itself figured out. Being a new club we had to get things established such as who we were, what we wanted to do, how were we going to be representing the craft of Homebrewing?

We have worked out several of those things so be sure you check out our meeting minutes to see what we covered and what we have going on. Be sure to visit us often as this year already has a ton of things going on.

We will be trying our best to keep you current with news as we know it and at the very least we will be sure to get meeting minutes out here so you can see what you might have missed and what is coming up next.
