This month is all about a classic American style, the style that kicked off the craft beer revolution - Pale Ale: Clean, light, slightly malty, and unashamedly hoppy. Where better to host this meetup than at Helen Rose, a small bar with Kunming's finest selection of imported American ales.

As part of this meetup, we'll also be doing an American Pale Ale homebrew workshop. The idea was that everyone brews a Pale Ale and brings in their beers so we can all taste, compare, and discuss. The recipes are up to the individual brewers, the main variation will likely come from different brewing techniques and equipment. The only restriction on the recipe was that they must use malts that are available in the co-op. We encourage all brewers who will be bringing beers to share their recipes if they feel comfortable doing so, as well as bring the vital stats like IBUs, ABV, SRM, etc.

As usual, anyone can attend, it's entirely free - the only rule is that everyone must buy at least 1 beer from the bar!
