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 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.
