General Meetings
From ASH
ASH holds a monthly general meeting for all members and prospective members. We usually cover club business and then have an educational presentation or speaker. All members are encouraged to bring their homebrewed beers to share. If you do not brew then bring an interesting quality beer to share with the group. Also, pizza is available and there is a raffle of various beer items and paraphernalia at every meeting.
Meetings are open to the public. If you are interested in joining the club, have any interest in homebrewing or quality beer in general, come to a future meeting and meet others in the club who share your interests.
All General Meetings are held on the 3rd Tuesday of each month unless it is necessary to accommodate a special speaker. However, in lieu of a meeting in December, the membership holds their annual pot-luck Holiday Party. Also, The October meeting is usually an informal gathering at a convenient location to collect memberships sold solely for Oktoberfest.
Unless otherwise noted, meetings are held at :
Del Sol Reception Hall, 243 S Mesa Dr, Mesa, AZ 85210 (map)
