This is a list for Brewers throughout the SCA to discuss issues, events, competitions, brewing and anything else of interest. Discussion on this list is intended to focus on issues of interest specific to SCA Brewers of all types of beverages. All SCA brewers are strongly encouraged to subscribe and help better our craft.
