Craft brewing is a great home hobby. Just about anyone with a pail, grains, malt and yeast can make a batch of simple ale in a few weeks. It makes for some interesting earthy smells in the kitchen that many folks love when brewing up a batch. If you are a homebrewer, you may be interested in taking your latest home brews up to Caseville for Thumb Brewery’s 2021 Homebrewing Competition.

Thumb Brewery’s Lauren Formicola gave us the details. “This is a free homebrewing competition, and there is no entry fee. Each participant may enter up to four different beers. Up to one of each category; Stouts, IPAs, Ambers, and Experimental.”
Lauren went on to note, “The first place brewing recipes will be featured in Thumb Brewery’s Fall and Winter season.”
