Are the 5-gallon buckets and carboys taking over your garage or basement? Is your beer fridge stocked with at least twenty-five percent of your own hazies? Does your bookcase feature names like Michael Jackson (you know we don't mean the singer), Randy Mosher, Charlie Papazian, and Jeff Alworth? 

If you answered yes to any or all of those questions above, here is one more for you. 

Are you a part of the American Homebrewers Association (AHA)? 

The country's premier not-for-profit organization that helps tens of millions of enthusiasts learn how to make beer, mead, and cider, AHA celebrates all things fermented every single day of the year. 

What Is the AHA?

Founded in 1978 by homebrew instructor, author, and past Brewers Association president Charlie Papazian in Boulder, CO, the AHA has grown into one of the best organizations supporting homebrewing in the world. 

Along with providing countless resources to fermentation fans, the AHA hosts the world's largest amateur beer competition, publishes a homebrew-focused magazine called Zymurgy®, advocates for homebrewers' rights in the United States, and hosts events to promote homebrewing and hobby fermentation. 

The AHA works tirelessly to provide these resources for beer, mead, and cider lovers day after day. 

But with National Homebrewer's Day coming up on May 7, 2023, this time of year seems a little more special for homebrew hobbyists.
