The annual Ohio Brew Week Homebrew Competition will be held on Saturday, July 11, 2009 in Athens, Ohio.
Free hotel rooms will be available to BJCP judges on a first come first served basis. Please contact Jane Zalewski at jzalew@verizon.net for details about judging. Beer and judge registration information will follow shortly. There will be two rounds of judging, 9 am and 12:30 pm. Breakfast and lunch will be provided. For more information regarding the competition, please contact Jason Klein at kleinjc40@hotmail.com. The competition will include all styles as listed in the 2008 BJCP Beer Style Guidelines. Last year we had over 100 entries and we are hoping to build on that total this year.
The Homebrew Competition marks the beginning of the annual Ohio Brew Week Festival in Athens, Ohio which runs from July 12 to July 18. There are beer related events every day and a special guest speaker at this week long city celebration. Several blocks in the city are blocked off to provide room for tents with beer and food vendors. Live bands play each evening. You can enjoy more than 76 craft beers from 23 Ohio microbreweries.
