We got ten brewers together on Big Brew Day saturday and brewed a combined 70gal.&nbsp; Three clubs were represented, it was a great time.&nbsp; We had a few party crashers, you know a party is going well when people crash your party.

Anyone else participate?

I usually hold a big event, but this year I just didn’t have the energy.&nbsp; But a friend and I got together and each brewed.

We had our brew day at the local homebrew shop.&nbsp; It was fun, but the weather was not agreeing.&nbsp; It was kind of cold, raining off and on, and pretty windy.&nbsp; My canopy went on a little flight and broke… In the process spilling 6 gallons of 180F sparge water on someone’s leg.&nbsp; A big heavy tent also blew over during the event… I don’t believe any beer was harmed… lol

We had 4 of our club members brew in the parking lot of our host and LHBS, A&G Homebrew Supply in downtown Portsmouth, NH.&nbsp; I had just flown back from Ireland the day before so there was no way I was going to haul all my stuff up there and brew, but I did go to help out.&nbsp; The weather was perfect, all four brewers did all-grain (2 were BIAB) and afterwards we had a couple pints at Earth Eagle Brewings (same building and owner of the LHBS).

Our club got together at a member’s farm; we had 27 brewers brew 141 gallons of beer, 128 of which was a Belgian Quad that we’re fermenting in bourbon barrels.
