Pink Boots Collaboration Brew Day

​Yesterday we celebrated Pink Boots Collaboration Brew Day with some of the women of our club.

Ready to brew!

To align with International Women's Day (every March 8th), the Pink Boots Society does the Pink Boots Collaboration Brew Day to help raise awareness and the profile of the contributions of women in the brewing industry. To celebrate, two of the women of our club (Olivia Hofmann and Hilary VandenToorn) collaborated on a recipe that we all brewed together. We each mashed on our own systems, then transferred the wort from all the disparate systems to our 40 gallon club pot for the boil. From there, each brewer is putting their own unique spin on it post-boil.
