The LAGERS have been around since 1996 with a small meeting of like-minded, brew enthusiastic individuals. From these roots, the club has continued to grow, expanding our membership, activities, and events.
Our members have won many awards/medals in local and regional contests, with one taking 2nd with his Quad in the 2009 AHA competition. In addition, two our members have went on to become asst. brewmasters for breweries in Wisconsin. Not bad for a club that got going in 1996.
We continue to expand, gathering in any and all that want to share in the brew community, whether you just enjoy a frosty cold one, or want to become a brewer yourself. And, like our name states...we aren't just about beer; wines and meads etc are ALL welcome under our banner :D.
We normally meet twice a month: the 1st Tuesday at the Bodega and the 3rd Wednesday at a "place to be decided". Start times are normally 7 pm.
