Home Brewing Competition

@ Ponderosa Pavilion

To enter, you must be a resident of San Luis Obispo or Santa Barbara County

The Central Coast Home Brewing Competition will also take place in May and feature beer, ciders and perry’s made from both San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties. Entries will be evaluated according to aroma, appearance, and flavor to determine an overall conclusion. Special thanks to Humdinger Brewing for their continued support of the competition.

Entries are judged by locals chosen for their great knowledge and experience for the fields of both wine and beer. Ranging from makers, industry insiders or having years of judging experience, feedback is always our goal with the judges chosen.
