One of our favorite prizes at SNERHC this year was the chance for a member of a CT-based homebrew club to brew their recipe at Reverie Brewing in Newtown.
Caysey Welton, of the Underground Brewers, won the prize with his Biere de Garde. He and Andy Cox joined Frank Lockwood at Reverie last month to brew a full batch on their system. Cans have been available in stores for a couple of weeks, but the official release was this past Sunday.
Well over a dozen club members, plus dogs, joined us to toast Caysey, thank Frank, and purchase 4-packs to take home. The beer was delicious (and, at 7.5%abv, potent) and most of us intend to stash a few to see how it ages.
Huge thanks again to Frank and Reverie from all of us at SNERHC and the UBC! And congrats to Caysey on his well-deserved win!
