The Febrewary meeting of the Society of Barley Engineers homebrew club will be held on Wednesday Febrewary 4th @ 6pm at the Stone Brewing World Bistro in Escondido. The focus topic, Barley Wines, will be led by Lynne Noella. We had a number of logistical problems at the last meeting and are working on solving these. Consequently we are planning on having a dedicated server upstairs that would allow us to order and consume food during the meeting. Unfortunately, the discount on the food will only be 15%.

On the Agenda:
1) Barley Wines – Lyne Noella
2) Meeting arrangements – Andy
3) 2015 Dues Collection – Jeremy
4) Homebrew Sharing

Event: Bicycle Tour de Vista

by

The Society of Barley Engineers is planning a biking tour of breweries in Vista for Sunday Febrewary 23rd starting at 1pm. The plan is to visit 8 breweries that are spaced 2-12 minutes apart by bike. This is not a drinking tour with bikes, but a biking tour with beer samples, so safety and moderation are paramount. The tour is approximately 10 miles (although there are some shortcuts if you are so inclined) with approximately 1 hour biking time. We will start with a taster at Indian Joe brewery in Vista at 1pm, after which we will bike to Mother Earth (Thibodo), Booze Brothers, Barrel Harbor, Latitude 33, Belching Beaver, Iron Fist and conclude at Aztec.

There are some moderate hills, so bikes with gears are recommended.

If you are interested in attending, please fill out the following RSVP form:
