"Here at O’Connor’s, we have made it one of our missions to be involved with the local brewing community. We were so pleased to learn that one of our original Home Brew Experts, Mitch Ermatinger, was moving back to Grand Rapids (from Denver, Colorado), to open a sour beer brewery-Speciation Artisan Ales. During his time in Denver, Mitch was a brewer at Former Future Brewing Company, and is currently working on building the sour program at Harmony Hall. If you have been brewing your own beer and want to go beyond the basics, this is the class for you."

What: Sour Beer Brewing Class. The first portion of the course will focus around the different ways to make sour beers and tips that Mitch wants all of you to know about this process. The second portion of the class will be a Q and A…..while sampling sour beers and enjoying snacks. There are 30 seats available, so it would be great for home brew clubs and brewing friends to sign up together.

When: March 5th, from 1-3pm

Where: Martha’s Vineyard Events Space…..right next door to O’Connor’s Home Brew Supply

Cost: $20, which will include sour beer samples and snacks.

Please visit our shop, or call, to sign up. Payment is required at time of registration and is nonrefundable the day of the seminar.
