The Cherry Blossom Homebrew Competition is now up! Head over to https://www.dchbcompetition.com/ to register. We are always seeking judges and stewards, so please volunteer on the same page. Good luck to all entrants! 

Our annual Cherry Blossom Competition is normally held around the time of the Cherry Blossom festival, so either in March or April. We will announce our competitions on the American Homebrewers Association competitions page and on this site.

Cherry Blossom is also a part of the Master Homebrewer Program’s Circuit of America (MHP COA), a competition series where points are earned based on how participants place in competitions. Judges interested in MHP’s Gavel Awards Program receive additional points for judging COA competitions, such as Cherry Blossom.

 

Thank you, brewers, judges, and stewards, for your participation in past and current competitions. They are always a great success. Congratulations to all the winners!

And a massive shout-out to DC Brau for supporting us (and to 3 Stars Brewing for its past support; may the company RIP).

Please do not hesitate to reach out to us with any questions or clarifications—we can be reached at competitions@dchomebrewers.com.

Regards,

The DC Homebrewers Team
