THE VILLAGES CRAFT BEER

AND BREWING ENTHUSIASTS

Activities   

Our club brings together craft beer enthusiasts to explore, learn, and celebrate great beer in a friendly, welcoming community.

We’re especially passionate about homebrewing and actively support members who brew (or want to start). Whether you’re a seasoned brewer, a curious craft beer lover, or just starting your journey into the craft beer world, come raise a glass, swap stories, and grow your passion for craft beer with us!

MONTHLY MEETINGS

Club Meetings are on the 4th Thursday of every month (with the exception of November, and occasionally December when holidays shift the date). Each meeting revolves around a featured beer style announced in advance. Members are invited to bring examples of that style to share, plus any other favorite beers they’d like to pour. The meetings typically start with Club business, then a short, engaging presentation on the history, ingredients, brewing techniques, or hallmarks of the month’s selected style. The Club then provides a benchmark example of the style for everyone to taste and discuss, followed by open tasting and friendly conversation as we compare notes on aroma, flavor, and what makes each beer unique. After the focused tasting, the real fun begins! We set up two tasting tables: One with the Selected Style to allow a deep dive into the night’s theme, and an “All Others” Table, which includes a free-for-all of surprises, member favorites, and homebrews made by our very own Club members. There’s always something new (and often something incredible) to discover. Great beer, great stories, and great company—every month. MORE >>

BUS TRIPS

Throughout the year, the Club organizes fun-filled, hassle-free bus trips to some of Florida’s best craft breweries – all within easy day-trip distance of The Villages. Past adventures have taken us to Gainesville, Tampa, Dunedin, Orlando, and beyond, with new destinations added whenever a great opportunity arises. Leave the driving to us: hop on the bus, relax with friends, and enjoy outstanding beers straight from the source. It’s always a laid-back, laughter-filled day of great beer, great company, and memories that last long after the last pour. Spots fill fast – don’t miss the next one! MORE >>

SOCIAL EVENTS

Year-round, the Club keeps the good times flowing with casual meet-ups and special events designed for laughter, friendship, and (of course) great beer. You’ll find us gathering at local breweries and taprooms for relaxed happy hours, taking over a rec center room for member-only parties and seasonal celebrations, hosting fiercely fun game nights (with beer and prizes, naturally), shooting pool, throwing darts, or just kicking back with friends old and new. No agenda, no presentation—just cold brews, great conversation, and the kind of evenings that make you glad you joined. There’s always something on the calendar, and everyone’s welcome. Come as you are, leave happier! MORE >>

SPECIAL EVENTS

We love going big when the opportunity strikes. Throughout the year, the Club rolls out exclusive, can’t-miss events that take our passion for craft beer to the next level. These are the events people talk about for months. Limited seats, maximum fun, and always something truly special (because with this club, there’s always something brewing). MORE >>
