AHA Club Only Competition – Extract Beers

The AHA’s Club-Only Competition (COC) program offers AHA-Registered Homebrew Clubs an opportunity to compete with other AHA-registered homebrew clubs. Each competition concentrates attention on a specific style of beer or mead.

This month, it’s extract beers. If you have a beer made with malt extract, bring it in to be evaluated – it may be chosen to represent the club in the upcoming AHA Club Only Competition.
