Participate in Big Brew for National Homebrew Day on May 4

WHAT

The American Homebrewers Association (AHA) will partner with over 300 breweries, homebrew shops, and beer clubs around the world on May 4 for the 22nd annual celebration of Big Brew. Held annually on the first Saturday of May in honor of National Homebrew Day, Big Brew is the largest annual gathering of homebrewers with an anticipated attendance of over 5,000 people.

Each Big Brew site is unique and all will feature brewing demonstrations, and opportunities to learn about the greatest hobby in the world–homebrewing!
