Keep Brewing!

MCZA meetings and events will be postponed until further notice. However, homebrew supply shops and websites are still running, so with little else available for recreation, why not brew more beer?

Notifications will be sent out to fellow Zymurgists when we can reconvene.

All the best,

Riley Zionce

MCZA President
