2010 Homebrew at the WEB Call for Entries and Volunteers!

The World Expo of Beer© is one of Michigan's premier commercial and craft beer events. Held annually since 1995, more than 40 international breweries, importers and distributors enter over 200 of their premium beers in the competition vying for the prestigious titles of Best of Show and People's Choice. The competition culminates in a two-day extravaganza during which the competitors showcase their products to nearly 10,000 eager participants and the winners take full advantage of their well-earned bragging rights!

The inaugural Homebrew at the W.E.B. Homebrewing competition was held in 2008 with 223 entries from 78 brewers representing 11 states. Our second competition received 329 entries from 103 brewers representing 16 states. The Cass River Homebrewers Club of Mid-Michigan is proud to again organize and conduct the annual competition. We're growing really fast, and we're excited about this year's competition.

This is a Beer Judging Certification Program (BJCP) sanctioned event. The third annual competition will be held On February 20 and 21 with the Best of Show and Organizers' Choice announced at the World Expo of Beer© in May, 2010 and we are thrilled to announce that the beer selected as Best of Show will again be brewed by and served on tap at the renowned Sullivan's Black Forest Brew Haus of Frankenmuth, Michigan!

In keeping with the theme of the World Expo of Beer©, Homebrew at the W.E.B is open to Homebrewers from anywhere within the United States, Canada or abroad and we are accepting entrees in BJCP categories 1 through 28.

Registration for the 2010 Homebrew at the WEB is up and running. You can register your entries and/or volunteer to help at http://www.crhbc.com/registration.php . Additional information can be found at www.crhbc.com .

Many of you helped to make last year's competition the success it was. I hope we can count on you for this year's.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
Brew Strong!!

Thanks for the heads up, Lee. I wish you would have posted a few weeks earlier about this. I would love to have sent a few entries in to this competition. Unfortunately, I don't think 1 month is enough time to brew and prepare anything for this event. If you hear of any other BJCP certified homebrew competitions, please let us know as far in advance as possible!

No worries, Dave.
In the future, I recommend that you use this site: http://www.bjcp.org/apps/comp_schedule/competition_schedule.php. You can find every scheduled BJCP competition there. We've been up there for about three months, and they have them out until next December.
Brew Strong!
