November 7, 2009 is the American Homebrewers Association’s (AHA) 11th Annual Teach a Friend to Homebrew Day and Hennessy Homebrew Emporium in North Greenbush is participating in this year’s celebration.

Teach a Friend to Homebrew Day is an international event celebrated each year on the first Saturday in November with the goal of introducing people to the homebrewing hobby and establishing relationships with local homebrew supply shops and homebrew clubs. Hennessy Homebrew Emporium is happy to invite anyone who is interested in learning how to homebrew to stop by on Saturday, November 7, beginning at 11 a.m. To encourage participation in this rewarding hobby, Hennessy Homebrew Emporium will provide free grains for those who come by to brew and to learn.

In 2008, over 2,100 participants brewed approximately 2,800 gallons on Teach a Friend to Homebrew Day at 140 sites worldwide (including sites in Canada, Kenya, Denmark, and 40 states in the United States). This year, the AHA expects even greater participation.

“One of the great things about homebrewers is they are happy to share their knowledge and to pass on the joy that they find in homebrewing to others,” states Gary Glass, the director for AHA, “that’s really what Teach A Friend To Homebrew Day is all about.”
