North Texas Homebrew Supply is hosting a BJCP Exam Prep and Beer Styles class. The first class is July 14 and runs through November 17. It is every other Sunday at 2:00pm. Each class is 3 to 4 hours.
Jimmy Orkin will be teaching the class again. The class is $300 which includes the beer and the $40 BJCP Judging Exam fee that will be scheduled for December or January.
This is the second BJCP Exam Prep class hosted by NTHBS. The class is evolving to improve the content delivery and make the class more interactive.
We will need 6 people to commit to taking the BJCP Judging Exam to schedule the exam. Everyone that took the exam from the last class passed the exam and achieved the rank of Certified.
The class can be purchased now on Eventbrite at this link: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/beer-judge-certification-program-bjcp-training-course-tickets-917858348027

We need beer for the Club Kegerator on Saturday evening at the Bluebonnet Brew-Off. Right now there is only beer from Terry and me. We need to fill up the 12 faucets. You can reserve you faucet at this link. Get your beer registered here: Click me Now.
Please bring your best beer. We want to show the participants which club brews the best beer and that is the NTHBA. If we overflow the 12 faucets we will work to switch kegs out and give every one some faucet time.
The kegerator is set up for ball lock kegs. If you have pin lock kegs, make a note in the spreadsheet.
