Dahoam Website

All of our classes and events are listed on our website on the dahoam page.

If you want a sneak peak, check out our online calendar.

Eventbrite

Most of our classes and events are ticketed through Eventbrite, so you should follow our Eventbrite organization page for updates.

Social Media

We also use Instagram and Facebook, though those are often "day of," so email, dahoam page, and Eventbrite are better for planning and getting tickets.   

But do follow us — many people discover Dahoam1516 through people like you. 

Classes and events are open to all-ages. 

Most classes are very kid friendly and we encourage kid-focused learning.   

In cases where it might be more adult-focused, we often offer "in garden" activities including our famous "gnome hunt."

We have over 350 gnomes and gnome-related items throughout our space.  Special treat for someone that finds them all.

Notes: 

Kids under 16 must attend with a paid adult.

Kids under 8, you might want to bring some toys, etc.  Though we do have our infamous gnomes.

Kids 16-18 may attend unchaperoned with parental and host permission.

Beer sampling is limited to 21+ with valid ID. 

We practice positive age confirmation.

Clothes...literally.  😁

Be comfortable and be yourself.
Dahoam means “at home,” and that’s how we want you to feel.

Our classes are hands-on and can sometimes be messy.
Casual clothing you don’t mind getting a little dirty, flour-y, or “beer-y” is best.
Some classes are outside, so a light jacket is a good idea, especially for kids.

Aprons are available in a limited number, bring your own.

Please wear comfortable shoes.

We love special events.  

We call those experiences.

We offer a selection of pre-defined experiences, or we can design one to meet your needs.
These work well for family gatherings, small work teams, or a night out with friends.

Please visit our experiences page to get ideas and start planning.

We offer Membership Discounts through our Membership Program.
We also offer select discounts on experiences for non-profits and community charities.

The beer is donated to Dahoam1516 by club members and curated homebrewers at no cost.
