Event details

The great Canton of Northpass in the Crown Province of Ostgardr has once again agreed to host the EKBG Brewers Collegium.

Have you been meaning to learn how to brew but aren't sure where to start? Are you a brewer who wants to up their game, or learn new techniques?
Would you like the opportunity to get feedback on your efforts from other brewers? Then join us for a day of classes of historical brewing, winemaking, mead making and more. 
A full roster of classes will be offered for brewers of all skill levels. 
In addition, the Brewers' Guild will be holding paneling.  Paneling is an A&S judging of period beverages using a rubric which can be found on the East Kingdom Brewers Guild Website.

A delicious repast will be prepared by Laurie Ann Parr.  No one will leave Hungry.

The site is discretely damp.  No kegs or hard liquor is allowed on site.
