The Brew Is Out There! Way back in 2015 for an early episode of the main show, Drew sat down with one of his mentors – Bruce Brode. Bruce was a past club president, Grand Hydrometer (education officer), Brews Band Keyboardist, a BJCP Master Judge and helped write many of the early style guidelines. This past week, Bruce passed away just shy of his 71st birthday and so let’s remember his wit and wisdom and enjoy a beverage in his honor.
