The purpose of The Greater Everett Brewer’s League is to promote and educate home-brewers in the production of craft-style homebrewed beers. As an American Homebrewers Association (AHA) social club we improve members brewing skills by providing mentoring and networking to fellow brewers, promote BJCP judging, evaluation and competition entry, as well as promoting the local craft beer movement.
Opportunities for Beer Evaluation and Education:
- Have your beer judged by the club – Every odd numbered month, the GEBL meeting is dedicated to evaluating beers of a single BJCP style. A commercial beer will be judged as well as all beers of that style brought by home brewers. See the Calendar of Events tab for the style for each month.
- Have a BJCP judge evaluate your beer – Bring a bottle to a meeting and a judge with evaluate it (using the BJCP score sheet) and give you the score sheet with feedback.
- Want to improve your judging skills? – Contact the GEBL Secretary to be paired with a BJCP judge for a one-on-one learning session. The two of you will to get together for an evaluation session of either a homebrew or a commercial beer.
What benefits are there in being a member? – In addition to beer education and fun activities, the club also has a 3-tier brew system (propane heated), a 2-tap jockey box, and a 6-tap jockey box. These are available for members to check out and use.
Requirements for membership in GEBL:
Because GEBL is a club related to the general education, consumption and production of an alcoholic beverage, certain conventions must be followed in order to become a member of the GEBL. If a visitor expresses an interest in becoming a member of GEBL, the membership requirements will be explained to the candidate by the GEBL Membership Coordinator.
