Win free home-brewing kits TONIGHT

Brew on

Luckily, you don't need all this space to home brew

St. Patrick’s Day is almost here, and your choices to celebrate probably involve drinking of some kind, either by sneaking a cup o’ brew down to the parade or by going to the bar and ordering the drink-and-shot combination with a politically volatile name. Or, instead, you can commit to learning the art of brewing yourself, to save some cash next year, and to feel like your drinking habit is also a productive one.

Tonight, the folks at Brooklyn Brew Shop are giving away free home brew kits and other beer-related schwag for YOU if you can pass a test of craft beer trivia. The shop crew will be holding down The Double Windsor in Windsor Terrace from 7-9 p.m., where they will host beer trivia, and give away free 1-gallon homebrew kits, including ingredients for black & tan, grapefruit honey ale and new juniper- and coriander-spiced “Bel-Gin” Strong.

The Brew Shop opened in 2008 to help city folk brew their own beer in apartment-sized batches. Practice trivia question to get you ready for tonight: What has two thumbs and loves free beer schwag?

Brew U.: Learn DIY beer-making basics at Etsy Labs

Make your own beer, charge your friends $6 a glass for it (plus tip).

The leaves in Prospect Park may not have changed color yet, but nothing says autumn like Oktoberfest. Instead of dropping cash on a flight to Munich or overpriced craft beer and sausage at a biergarten, learn to DIY brew from the best of them at Oktoberfetsy, a workshop sponsored by Etsy Labs in Dumbo on Oct. 19. Talk shop with Brooklyn Brew Shop founders Erica Shea and Stephen Valand while getting the insider scoop on the best way to brew. If the $5 price tag isn’t enough to pull you away from Netflix, there’s a catch: you can get in free with any beer-related purchase from Etsy, some of which are cheaper than $5, though we dissuade you from sporting this PBR belt buckle. You’ll also get to sip on beer samples while watching a brewing demo of the Shop’s autumn ale, Bourbon Dubbel, then get the 411 on how to replicate the process yourself.
