March 2026 Club Meeting
Homebrew tastings start at 5:30. This is an excellent opportunity to seek feedback on your brew or just to share! (and if you like, leave an extra bottle or two as thanks for management and bar staff)
To help us manage homebrew samples, if you plan to bring anything for us to taste and offer feedback, please e-mail Adrien with the details by Noon the day of the meeting. (we’ll take derelicts and stragglers of course, but it helps to know in advance what to expect)
Club business starts at 6pm, usually lasts about 45 minutes to an hour. Additional homebrew samples may be scattered throughout the meeting, or at the end.
DYS members get $1-OFF draft during the meeting!
We’ll meet at Adopted Dog Brewery so when we’re done with the meeting, we don’t have to drive anywhere for a bite to eat and enjoy fine Louisiana craft brew from one of our own!
