The St. Louis Brews Microfest Homebrewing Competition

The St. Louis Microfest Homebrew Competition is the sponsored and conducted by the St. Louis Brews to benefit Lift For Life Gym. It is a fully sanctioned AHA and BJCP event. 

This year, the judging will be held on Saturday, April 20, with preliminary judging being done during the week.

Due to the overwhelming support of this competition, we will be instituting a cap of 250 entries this year. Because of this, we encourage brewers to enter their beers early once registration begins.
