The awesome folks from Lallemand and the University of the Sciences judged BOMB Brewer entries in a intra-club competition at the April meeting. 20 members brewed up their best beers fermented with Lallemand's Philly Sour yeast.  Judges for the event included, Sylvie Van Zandycke, Tobias Fischborn, & Didier Theodore from Lallemand and Dr. Matthew Farber from the University of the Sciences.
The competition winners were:

• 1st place - Sean Mellody
• 2nd place - Chris Noll
• 3rd place - Kevin Harkness​

Molly Browning of Lallemand conducted an interactive sensory presentation on "off flavors" in beer. Attendees had a chance to taste samples with off flavors to get first hand experience when they encounter them in a beer. The prevention is available on the BOMB YouTube channel.

This year's brewery bus tour will take place Saturday, May 21st. The bus will leave Sterling Pig at 11:30am returning around 6:00pm.
