Welcome to the site and to brewing! I'm in Vancouver, Washington. I received a $100 gift certificate to Baders Homebrew Supply in Vancouver as a Christmas gift. We have a homebrew club here in Vancouver (Cascadia Brewers Alliance). We meet on the first Thursday of every month from 7-9 p.m. at Baders. This month, the first Thursday of the month fell on January 1st, so we moved this months meeting to January 8th. Please stop by and meet us.
We do a homebrew tasting session at every meeting.
