Brewing with MadTree & 50West

On Saturday, May 18th, members of the Brew Review committee showed up in full force at MadTree Brewing Company to start making Wheat Eater.  Those in attendance included Michael & his family (Lana, Ray, Carrie, and Jack), Jim Hinners, Jordan Peelman, the MadTree men Jeff Hunt & Kenny McNutt, and all the men from 50 West, Bobby, Whit, Blake and Max.  Jim also invited some friends, including Cameron, who homebrews on a pretty impressive system in Wooster, OH.

no brewing would be complete with out drinking some beer at the same time. We enjoyed 50 West’s beers in MadTree glassware. Thanks to the 50 West guys from bringing some growlers!

 

Wheat Eater will be tapped at 50 West on Wednesday, June 5th.  Buy a ticket and come out and celebrate with us!
