The December 2025 meeting will be hosted by Jason Cooper at Manchester Brewing, 122 E Main St, Manchester, MI, in the “lounge”. Because this is a brewpub, please bring only your own homebrewed alcoholic beverages.

Meetings start at 7:30PM on the second Friday of each month.

Please remember that you must be at least 21 years old to attend AABG meetings.

What should I bring to the meeting?

  • Bring yourself, foremost.
  • Bring homebrews to share, and homebrews that you want comment on. We’ve all made beers with flaws, and the best way to learn how to get past those flaws is to talk to others who’ve done it, too.
  • Bring a tasting glass. A small glass helps with portion control. It should be big enough to get your nose into, though.
  • Bring a snack to share.
  • Bring an interesting commercial beer, especially if it’s one that’s not easily available locally.

Remember, though, that we are about brewing and tasting, not about drinking large quantities. One or two bottles of each beer is plenty to share around for tastes.

The meeting is very loose, with no particular structure other than a brief business meeting in the middle.
