Savannah Brewers League
Homebrew Club
Welcome
The Savannah Brewers League is an informal group of fellow homebrewers with a passion for making beer, cider, mead and wine. Founded in 1993, the club serves as a haven for homebrewers throughout the Low Country and Coastal Empire in and around Savannah, Georgia. The purpose of the club is to share ideas, recipes, techniques, and stories, all in pursuit of making excellent beer.
We meet the first Wednesday of each month beginning at 7:30 p.m. downstairs at Moon River Brewing Company at 21 West Bay Street in historic downtown Savannah.
All levels of Zymurgists are welcome — from beginners to advanced all-grain experts. We are an AHA-registered homebrew club. Come join us for a session!

Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital ingredient in beer.
