Annual Cider Buy 2020 – Colorado Cider Company

Great news! We will still have our annual cider buy with Brad Page and Colorado Cider Company this year! More details to come, but we expect the event to take place in late October/early November.

Stein Beer Group Brew Session – October 24, 2020 @ Carl’s – fire starts at 10am.

If you don’t know what a stein beer is, its a beer brewed using rocks heated in a fire to boil the wort. It’s been an annual event for the last few year with FOTR. The past few years’ stein beers were a great success, so we hope we can get even more people into the process this year. Naturally, we will be social distancing and wearing masks. Reach out the the club email for more details about the event. Some links about Stein Beers provided below. Please RSVP so we know how many people to expect.

If 75% or more of Foam On The Range members are also AHA members, then the club will automatically receive a check fully reimbursing your $90 insurance premium payment. The AHA reimbursed over $5,000 to 41 clubs last year.
