When Are Meetings?
Dayton DRAFT holds meetings on the second Friday of each month (except September, the second Saturday is the DRAFT Beerfest and December the first Friday is the Christmas Party) at 7:00 PM
Where are Meetings?
1400 East 5th Street Dayton, OH 45403
What should I expect?
A typical DRAFT meeting will usually last three hours. The first hour is a social hour, showcasing people and their homebrews. Sharing is the key to this hour, ask people brewing tips are share your own. Taking a small (1 to 2oz) sample will insure you get to sample a wide variety of beers and afford everyone a chance to sample anything in limited supply.
The second hour is usually a small business meeting, discussing things that pertain to the club. This is when any upcoming competitions are announced.
Following the business meeting there will be a short presentation by one of the members of DRAFT. These can cover a wide range of topics. Past presentations have featured kegging and force carbonating, off-flavor identifiers, and homebrew toys.
During some of the meetings there will be open judging on the latest competition. This is a great way to get involved in beer judging, if judging is something you are interested in you can always talk to one of the many DRAFT members who are certified beer judges.
At all meetings there will be food available for a small charge (1$ per serving).
Who can come?
All persons interested in brewing are welcome, especially those with no previous brewing experience. Come along and join the fun!
First Time To a Meeting?
Bring a small glass and some homebrew or commercial craft beer to share and enjoy. A small glass will allow you to sample a wide variety of beers. Food is served for a small charge ($1 per serving), but you can bring your own snacks. Be sure to let us know if it’s your first meeting!
