Welcome to the ZZ Hops Home Brew Club website.

We are the east side brewing club of Kansas City. We normally meet on the 3rd Tuesday of the month @ 7:30pm at the Lake Lotowanna Sportsman's Club. It's a relaxed atmosphere of sipping beer and discussing home brewing. If you have an interest in learning more feel free to contact an officer [see below] or post a question on the forum page.

Informal brewing parties at members houses happen monthly. Just check the forum!

Presently club members teach brewing and mead making classes thru UMKC if you or a friend are interested, just post on the forum.
