Description:A Beer Festival for homebrewers, the people who love them and everyone who appreciates beer!



On October 14th the New York City Homebrewers Guild will be hosting its 30th Anniversary (that's right, 30TH ANNIVERSARY!!!!) Extravaganza at The Well on Messerole St. in Brooklyn. It's a momentous occasion and a great time to celebrate the burgeoning homebrew community in NYC!! The Guild is New York City's oldest homebrew club and over the past 30 years our hobby has grown by leaps and bounds. Homebrew clubs are sprouting up across the city as new generations of enthusiastic beer lovers discover the joys of making, sharing and imbibing their own fermented creations. In addition, many of our past members have gone on to successful professional careers in the beer industry. So, we've invited all the local clubs out to enjoy this party with us and to do what we all do best: make and share great beers and have a great time doing it AND we've invited our Alumni professional brewers to attend and bring beer from their breweries!!



This will be a festival of homebrew from some of the finest homebrewers in the greater NYC area and pro brews from some excellent pro brewers from across the country! Attendees receive a complimentary NYC Homebrewers Guild 30th Anniversary glass and unlimited homebrew and special brews from our NYCHG Alumni breweries! Homebrew clubs will be representing and proudly sharing samples of their wares.

Proceeds from this event will be donated to support the Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center at Columbia University and the Pink Boots Society.
