So this last weekend we started meeting as an official Homebrew club. We had six of us, which I'd say is pretty good since we didn't do a very good job of promoting it. Hopefully next month will be bigger and better! Here's what we brewed...
Cana Pale Ale

11 gallons
Fermentables:
20.62 lb GW 2-Row
3 lb CaraHell
1.63 lb Munich Light

Actual FG:
Final ABV%:
Hops:
2oz CTZ for 60m
1oz Cascade for 10m
4oz Mt Hood at Flameout in hopback
4oz Dryhop for 7 days (2oz in each bucket)
45 IBU's
Yeast:
WhiteLabs WLP001 California Ale Slurry in one bucket
Fermentis Safale-05 in one bucket
Notes:
Great day brewing and made a couple new friends. Our gravity came in a little lower than expected and we had some clogging issues with the new hopback. That was our first time using it. Fermentation is going solidly. We'll rack to secondary and add dryhops in about a week or so. All in all this was a great first run and we're pretty excited about Cana!
