Calling all homebrewers! We know that homebrewing is a vital part of the local beer industry. Many of the craft breweries that we all love got their start homebrewing in basements and garages. If you think your homebrew has what it takes, join us at the Kentucky Craft Beer Festival and enter the Hardin County Homebrew Competition below. Prizes will be awarded to the top-three brews as judged by our panel of “experts”. And the top brewer will enjoy the eternal glory as the second ever Hardin County Homebrew Champion.
Presented by the Homebrewer of Hardin County!
