Could the mods please un-merge these threads? All the posts in this thread are from over 3 years ago, before our club had even done much of anything. This thread was meant to bring attention to a class we're doing soon, but now it's just got the title "Jersey City Brew Club" which doesn't really draw attention to the event we wanted to talk about. We would really appreciate it.

The Jersey City Brew Club - a club for homebrewers and beer lovers in Jersey City and the surrounding area (we have members from Bayonne, Hoboken, and as far as Newark and Montclair) is hosting a study group for the BJCP program.

BJCP is the Beer Judge Certification Program, a program that standardizes beer judging. Certified judges can judge homebrews and professional beers in contests around the country. But it's not just about drinking beer, as it's focused on the entire process of how beer is made. Once we've gone through our study group, you should be able to taste a beer with off flavor and know what went wrong and how it can be improved.

So join us for our study group! Only dues-paying members of the JCBC can attend, so if you aren't a dues-paying member, make sure to choose the right option on the BrownPaperTickets page.

And if you're a homebrewer or beer lover, please join us at HopsScotch tomorrow evening (Wednesday the 19th) at 7:30PM for our monthly meeting. We always bring homebrewed beer and cider to share and critique, and everyone is very welcoming and friendly.

By the way, the cost of the study group covers beer, snacks, the space we're meeting at, and study materials. We also have several pros from the industry scheduled to talk to us.

@york Join up and shoot me a message. We're having a tasting the Wednesday before Thanksgiving if you're interested in participating.

@stranger I've been buying from Northern Brewer which has a flat shipping rate of $7. I just discovered that the Gaslamp in South Orange has a homebrew store (and very reasonable prices). There's also a brew store in the Gowanus portion of Brooklyn - but I haven't made it out there yet. I've also heard rumors of a place in Freehold, but haven't looked into it.

I am up for joining. I actually bottled the same day you guys did. Made a copper ale and spiced pumpkin ale.

Where do y'all get supplies? I hate paying an arm and a leg for shipping.

Hell yeah we did. The owner seriously hooked us up and the owner from NJ Beer Co was there to chill out. Great times all around!

We had a nice meetup at Iron Monkey and look forward to meeting any more brewers in JC that want to meet up for beers or do some brewing.

Guys, We've put together the list of bars: 1. Leave Grove St at 1pm <> 2. PATH to Rattle N Hum (14 E 33rd St; Manhattan) 3. Walk to The Ginger Man (11E 36th St; Manhattan) 4. D Train to 4th Ave Pub (4th St; Park Slope Brooklyn) 5. Walk to Pacific Standard (4th St; Park Slope Brooklyn) 6. G Train to Barcade (308 Union Ave; Brooklyn) 7. L Train to 14th to PATH to Home We'll be leaving from the PATH station at 1pm and wrapping up around 8pm.

Come one, come all!

The JCBC is putting together a bar crawl through Manhattan and possibly part of Brooklyn. The date is Saturday, November 20th from 1pm to ???pm.

We're still working on the schedule but join up and take part in the debauchery!

Hi, I have joined your facebook group and would really like to take part in one of your upcomming meets. i have brewed a few times before but not since moving to my small apartment in JC. Please keep me informed for any new events or whatever you have in store.

Ah, Duffy's is the last name of one of the members. For just this time around, we're going to keep it to the members that have already met in person. Just a safety thing.

We'll be putting a few events together in the very near future (visiting the New Jersey Beer Company in North Bergen or going to Iron Monkey for their Thursday beer nights). So definitely come out and meet some of the guys.

I see the Facebook link, with an event this coming Sunday at Duffy's. I was wondering the location of the Duffy's, in Hoboken?

we brew about once a month, usually have 2-4 different beers in various stages. i'll check out your website..

Interested.

Hey guys,

A few local JC dudes formed a home brew (beer) club and are looking for new members! We're hoping to get a few people interested in the beer making and drinking process. We'll be brewing every 6-8 weeks, drinking our suds, and doing other beer/wine/cocktail related events.

We're in the first stages of formation, but the good news is that we'll have a Spiced Pumpkin Ale and a Hopped Apple Cider beer ready in time for Thanksgiving.
