Subject: [Michlib-l] Program Recommendation
<br />
<br />> I’d like to recommend a program that we recently hosted. Matt
from Michigan Brew Supply Co. came out and did a homebrew demonstration for our
patrons. It was a 2 ½ hour class, and in that time, he brewed the makings of a
porter. He talked about how to safely homebrew, the history of brewing beer, the
craft beer culture in Michigan, the ingredients that go into it, and so much
more. Patrons got to taste different types of malted barley, smell fresh hops,
taste other homebrew samples, and even help stir the pot. He was very
knowledgeable and passionate about his craft. I asked him if he would be willing
to go to other libraries and he said yes. They are based out of the Midland area
and he said that he would be willing to drive 1-2 hours from that area for a
class, further if the library paid for his travel. He only charged us the cost
of the brew kit, which was under $40. Their website is <a href="https://www.mibrewsupply.com/">https://www.mibrewsupply.com/</a> but I did
all of my correspondence with Nicole, the co-owner, through their Facebook page
at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/MiBrewSupply/">https://www.facebook.com/MiBrewSupply/</a>
. Nicole’s e-mail is <span class="null"><a href="mailto:nicolev@mibrewsupply.com">nicolev@mibrewsupply.com</a> and the shop
# is 989-486-9265. I highly recommend them.</span><o:p />
