ABOUT THE CLUB
The Cowtown Yeast Wranglers are a Calgary-based club of homebrewers and beer enthusiasts. Club meetings are typically held on the first Wednesday of every month at 8:00 pm at various locations around town (except in the summer months). Details are announced on this site, our monthly newsletter, and social media platforms.
Membership
Has It’s
Beer-nefits!
-
Memberships are now valid for 1 year from the date of purchase rather than January-December, so anyone buying a membership mid-year will get the same value as someone that purchases a membership in January.
-
Up to three members from the same household.
-
Monthly Meetings Sept-June usually include presentations on various homebrew topics.
Sharing of homebrew, recipes, tips, and supplies/equipment happens between members when we get together!
-
Don't forget to check out our sponsors page for discount details. New for this year, Village Brewery is offering our members a 20% discount on beers in the taproom, off-sales & merch. Our sponsors have asked that members let them know they have a club discount before the transaction is entered into the till.
COMPETITIONS
2025 Competition Events News
NOTE: We are now processing bottle shipping fees HERE through the website!
If you are paying for bottle fees to multiple competitions, add separate bottle shipping items to your cart for each competition. Make sure that the quantity is correct so we can plan shipping and ensure no bottles are left behind.
Include the printed receipt with your bottles when you drop them off. If you don't have access to a printer, include a written note with your name, order number, competition, and total number of bottles.
For glass bottles, we are shipping 12oz long neck bottles only. Our bottle shippers are not effective at protecting other types of bottles. Plastic PET bottles and cans are still OK.
If you have questions, email Dave.
