Learn to Homebrew Day 2023: AHA Celebrates 25 Years of Brewing Excellence

The American Homebrewers Association® (AHA) is thrilled to unveil the exciting details of the 25th annual Learn to Homebrew Day, scheduled for November 4, 2023. This widely-anticipated nationwide celebration is designed to demystify the art of homebrewing while offering valuable resources to brewing enthusiasts. Whether you're a seasoned brewer or a curious beginner, Learn to Homebrew Day presents a unique opportunity to expand your knowledge, connect with like-minded beer aficionados, and revel in the joy of homebrewing.

In a special twist for this landmark year, the AHA has chosen two official SMaSH (Single Malt and Single Hop) beer recipes, each featuring a single type of ingredient. Homebrewers can opt for the delectable SMaSH Sensory Blonde Ale or craft their very own distinctive brew with Your First SMaSH Ale.

Participation in Learn to Homebrew Day couldn't be simpler. Head over to the AHA website to handpick a homebrew recipe that suits your taste and access a treasure trove of unmatched resources catering to brewers of all skill levels. This event is dedicated to education, fostering camaraderie, and unleashing the full potential of your brewing creativity. Since its inception in 1999, Learn to Homebrew Day has remained a beloved tradition among homebrewers.

"Learn to Homebrew Day is all about fostering a sense of community and sharing the passion for homebrewing. It's a day when experienced brewers can mentor newcomers and help them take their first steps into this exciting hobby,” said Julia Herz, executive director, American Homebrewers Association. “The SMaSH recipes we've chosen for 2023 are both a fantastic starting point for anyone looking to explore the world of homebrewing or those looking to sharpen their skills.”
