UPCOMING EVENTS
Club Calendar
Don’t miss any of our upcoming events. We typically meet once a month to discuss the craft, club business, and learn from one another. We strive to plan great events for our members so we often have other events on the calendar in addition to our monthly meetings. New for 2024 are monthly FABucation sessions which are designed to enhance the educational focus and intent behind our homebrew club.
You can stay up-to-date here and through our Facebook page. We also share area events through Facebook Events and sometimes organize gatherings around events that are already taking place. Check out our upcoming schedule.
Guests are welcome to join us for up to two meetings. We are a friendly group. Don't be afraid to stop in and say hi and learn more about our club! You don't even have to brew your own beer to join this club. We have members who are homebrewers and others who join socially. Click here to join Flint Area Brewers.
