First of all, this is a craft beer and home brew event, so you can expect lots of both! The Big Thirsty Hospitality room will be running Saturday afternoon, giving you a chance to sample a rotating selection of local commercial beers. The event also features two pub crawl bus options, along with some exciting technical speakers.
On Saturday evening, the Bluebonnet awards ceremony will reveal the winners of the largest volunteer-run homebrew competition in the country, and then area home brew teams will begin offering their wares to sample and vote on in the People’s Choice homebrew expo, our marquee event. Some of the best home brewers in the region will be pouring beers in hopes of bringing in the top prize for their club. We’ll also have talks by our keynote presenter, our popular Brewer’s Roundtable, and several other technical talks still being worked out. If you’ve ever considered making your own beer, this is where you come to find out how!Discover the complete line-up for this year’s event at the calendar link on the menu above, and check out the Conference link to discover details on everything the Bluebonnet has to offer.
