* Membership is good through the end of the anniversary of your sign-up month.
  Ex: Join on May 12, 2020; membership good through May 31, 2021.
* A member may extend membership any time during the year following expiration and recieve longevity-based items.
  Ex: Join on May 12, 2020; renew on Jun 23, 2021; membership extended until May 31, 2022 & get 2nd year items.
* Memberships lapsed more than 1 yr will forfeit that "spot" (ex: on a wall rack or the ceiling- hang order), making it available for another. The expired member, if they wish to re-join, will do so as a new (1st-year) member. Fully-lapsed members forfeit their 1/2 yard, if left behind (the half yard is yours with initial membership and, any time you like, you can take it home. By way of example, we have had members move out of the area and take their 1/2 yards with them.)
• NOTE:Membership fees are "+ sales tax", as required by The State.
• $70 -- Replacement 1/2 yard. Don't break it!

Joining:

Our aim is to attract members that share and reflect ManyFriends' values, contributing to our welcoming atmosphere and generally making the space better by their presence.

To join ManyFriends' 18-inchers...

• Come visit a few times.
* We're thrilled that you love the space, but it's not quite like what most expect when they hear "brewery". Visit, hang out, get a feel for what's happening, think about if it's really the sort of place in which you want to be invested.
* Not only the vibe, but learn a little about our mission. Understand our meaning behind mantras like "it's not about The Beer", "we don't hustle", "it's not that kind of place", "it's not a bar" and similar.
• Meet a few of the regulars.
* ManyFriends is centered around enjoying each other, meeting new people and making new friends.
• If, after a few visits, it seems like your kind of place, talk with one of the managers and mention that you're interested in signing up.
* We'll take some basic information, explain the secret handshake, and put your first years' membership on your tab. Welcome to ManyFriends 18-inchers!
