RSVP ON FACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/events/800354688814354 Mark your calendars for the BIGGEST brew day of the year! Join us for Oregon Brew Crew’s BIG BREW DAY event hosted in collaboration with F.H. Steinbart on Saturday, May 4th from 10AM-4 PM. Festivities will include a hands on group brew session from start to finish, lunch, information regarding club membership, and raffle prizes! Whether you’ve brewed for many years, a handful of years or haven’t brewed at all in your life - ALL skill levels are welcomed as we will work together to group brew. Don your favorite Star Wars t-shirt or Jedi robe to make this as fun as possible for what  is sure to be a day of learning, team building, socializing, and collaborating! That being said, we need volunteers to assist with set-up, pitch in kegs of beer / jockey boxes, equipment, and teardown. Please contact at 503-576-1329 / nico@oregonbrewcrew.org if you’d like to help, the more the merrier! We look forward to seeing you there!

  The Peninsula Odd Fellows Lodge (where we have held our OBC Holiday Party for the last few years) is hosting this event along with the Muscovites, a philanthropic organization that raises funds for charity. The night showcases groups that use the Lodge for dance/song/theater/martial arts etc. These groups each perform and then lead audience participation dances and sing-a-longs. All the money raised goes to support Portland-based charities. OBC members have supplied the beer since the very first Odd Ball and Fez Fest in 2016! Brewers are given a space to set up Jockey boxes and serve their beer. Each brewer will have a bucket for “Donations''. At the end of the night, the brewer that raises the most donations for charity receives a plaque declaring them “The Best Brewer in The Universe''. Get started on brewing a beer now to be ready by the end of next month. This year, OBC will be receiving a special award at the event in recognition of our philanthropic work in the community. We want as many of our members to be present as possible to receive this award. The event is a lot of fun, VERY eclectic, and includes a lot of great food. Participating brewers get in free. All other OBC members get in for half-price (only $25 each). We want to have a good showing for the award, so please join us.  OBC discount tickets available at: http://www.keepportlandodd.com/OBC_secretdiscountpage.html If you want to provide beer for this event, please contact Michele ASAP. michele.lish@oregonbrewcrew.org  

We will have a few kegs of Heart of Cascadia leftovers. We will be tasting our Group Brewing submissions of Belgian Pale Ales, learning about the styles and discussing each entry (7 total). Food Theme: Eggs (Quiche, Deviled, Scotch, Flan/Custard). Come help setup at 6:30 if you are available!

Join us for our monthly social-out meeting at Lazy Day's Brewing on March 28th, 7pm.  This newly opened brewery is located at the former ExNovo locations, and we will be treated to a brief rundown and perhaps tour of the facility by one of the owners or brewers.  So, come on out, support this great establishment, buy a beer and some food (which is quite delicious) and join your fellow OBC members for an evening of social fun.
