About the North County Brewers
The NCB was formed by two of the earliest founder members of the NHC (Will and Partidge_9 (aka James and currently “Mr President of the NHC”), and is one of the NHC’s original homebrew clubs. Founded around November 2012, the first meeting was held in the Old Boro in Swords on December 11th of the same year.
Meetings are ususally held monthly (on the 2nd Tuesday) in the Forty Four.
It isn’t necessary to bring homebrew, but if you do you will get feedback.
Meets are now typically attended by 10 or so homebrewers and often guests from the other regional groups. The meetings are open to everyone, and free to attend.
