Mike Roman made a motion to reimburse Ryan Hall $100 for a large copper kettle.  Discussion.  Motion passed unanimously.

A summer group brew was discussed.  We decided to leave the topic for next month's meeting.

We discussed the need to find new meeting space since we're having difficulty getting space at Hereford & Hops.  Everyone is encouraged to search and report back to the club.

Treasurer's Report:  Brett Danke reported we have $873.52.

This month's topic was Northern English Brown Ale tasting and judging for the Golden Growler competition.  3 tables of judges each judged 3 - 4 beers and sent on the top 2 from the table for a Best of Club round.  A head judge from each table judged Best of Club and chose the top 3 beers overall.  The winners were -

Travis Skroch - Frostbite Brown Ale
Brett Danke - November Brown
Bill Flood - NEBA

The club chose 3 styles for next year's competition.  They were German Weiss/Weizen, American IPA, and Saison.
