"Craft

beers and Home brewing are growing in popularity in Ontario, which is

why the Cornwall HomeBrew Club is hosting an American Homebrewers

Association (AHA) Learn to Homebrew Day event Saturday, November 2nd at

Schnitzels on Pitt Street.

Organized by the AHA, Learn to Homebrew Day is an international event

held on the first Saturday of November. Since 1999, thousands of home

brewers have gathered each year to teach friends and family the basics

of the home brewing hobby.

The Cornwall HomeBrew Club is

calling on all beer enthusiasts or hobbyists with an interest in home

brewing, or those who just enjoy beer talk and good food, to stop by

Schnitzels from 11:30am to 4:30pm Saturday, November 2nd to join the

fun! The event is planned for the patio however if it does rain we will

move inside.

Two special guests will be joining us that day:

Mario Bourgeois from Cassel Brewery and Ron Brennan from Old 4th Hop

Farm. The demonstration will cover two different types of home brewing

systems.

The Cornwall HomeBrew Club is a fledgling

organization just getting off the ground and this is our first official

event. Those interested in joining the club can find us on facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/497890490305198/

“If you’ve ever had an interest in homebrewing, Learn to Homebrew Day

is the ideal way to get started. Brewing a batch with an expert is a

great way to get started, which is why this event connects aspiring home

brewers with experienced ones for a hands-on education,” said Ryan

Chaytor, founder of the Cornwall HomeBrew Club."
