The Band of Media Brewers meet upstairs in the loft at Sterling Pig Brewery on the 3rd Thursday of each month. Meetings have a short agenda on club business, followed usually by member and other knowledgeable people on topics related to home brewing, followed by social time - the best time - where we share our home brewers and simple hang out.
All are welcome - beginner to advanced home brewer, to non-homebrewers. Significant others, friends, we are an all inclusive group. Come hang out, we're a good time. See past presentation materials here in our shard drive. Click the Google drive image below.

Upcoming meetings
February 20th
3rd Thursday Meeting
7pm Sterling Pig Brewery, Media, PA
We are excited to welcome back Dr. Matt Farber, Assistant Professor of Biology and Director of Brewing Science Program at USciences in Philadelphia. Dr. Farber will be discussing his experiences with wild yeast hunting and homebrewing with wild yeast. And he has an important announcement about once such strain, isolated in Philly, which will soon be commercially available to brewers and homebrewers worldwide! This yeast produces lactic acid during alcoholic fermentation, enabling rapid, sour beer production without the need for bacteria. Bring all of your yeast questions!
Dr. Farber created the Brewing Science Certificate Program at University of the Sciences when he was a Teaching Postdoctoral Fellow under Dr. Peter Berget. While a postdoctoral fellow, Dr. Farber designed and instructed the graduate Biotechnology courses, integrating student-driven, inquiry-based research into the lab. Dr. Farber’s research aims to develop biotechnological applications for the improvement of fermentation quality and practice, with a focus on proteases and their influence on beer quality. He is a member of and has presented at the American Society of Brewing Chemists, Master Brewers Association, and American Homebrewers Association.
