Starting a new hobby can be intimidating, so in an effort to help people learn how to brew their own beer, Cape Cod Beer will hold a monthly Learn to Homebrew Class this fall. In this class aspiring brewers will learn everything they need to know to brew and bottle their very first batch of beer. Tips and tricks from seasoned homebrewers will be shared by members of the Cape Cod Beer Brew Crew.

Why Homebrew? Homebrewing has a long history in America and around the world. Beer had been brewed in people’s homes since the dawn of agriculture several thousand years ago. In colonial times, homebrewing was a common household practice, typically performed by women. Many of the Nation’s founding fathers, including George Washington and Thomas Jefferson were homebrewers. The American Homebrewers Association estimates that 1 million Americans brew beer at home at least once a year. Even President Obama has been known to homebrew at the White House! On Cape Cod there is an active homebrew club with 30-40 active members, called the Cape Cod Lager and Ale Makers (CCLAMS) that meets on the first Wednesday of the month at Cape Cod Beer.
