We are extremely excited to announce the 3rd annual Olde Hickory Pro-Am Competition that will take place March 31st 2012. In order for this event to be a success I am asking for your help. Help us by ENTERING YOUR BEER! Many of you have not entered a homebrew competition before but do not let that stop you. It is a great way to get feedback on your beer in an extremely constructive way from people who really know beer. We are looking to increase our entry count this year to 150 entries. I have personally tasted the beer that our members brew and I can say with certainty that the beer is just as good as the beers we have judged in other competitions around North Carolina. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain by participating. Just think, this summer you could be sitting back with your friends and families enjoying a pint or two of beer that YOU brewed at Olde Hickory or you head down to the Tap Room or Amos Howard’s with your co-workers and there’s YOUR beer on tap for everyone to enjoy! Not to mention it will be entered into the Great American Beer Festivals Pro-Am competition in Denver Colorado in September.
This competition is open to anyone in North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, and Virginia but I really want the focus to be on our club’s fantastic brewer’s. Enter as many beers as you can and let’s get the Pro-Am Best of Show winner from CLASS!
Don’t forget you need to be an American Homebrewers Association member to be eligible to win Best of Show and be entered into the GABF Pro-Am. You can sign up with the AHA here
