“It’s never been a better time to be a homebrewer. And for anyone who loves beer and has never tried homebrewing before, it’s really easy to get started,” said Gary Glass, director, American Homebrewers Association. “We’re excited to see thousands of people around the world participating in AHA Learn to Homebrew Day, taking part in the most gratifying, delicious activity of all time.”
“The Westchester Homebrew Emporium is the oldest homebrew/winemaking store in Westchester County,” added Phil Clarke Jr., manager and co-owner. “And it’s great to be working with The WHO, the county’s oldest active homebrew club, with this event.”
Homebrewing had an estimated economic impact of $1.225 billion and created 11,672 jobs in the U.S. in 2015. An AHA survey from the same year found that 41 percent of regular craft beer drinkers who don’t homebrew express a strong interest in taking up homebrewing. Now’s the time to get started.
Learn to Homebrew Day was started in 1999 by the AHA to promote homebrewing education in America. For more information, please visit the Events section of HomebrewersAssociation.org or HomebrewersAssociation.org./pages/events/learn-to-homebrew-day.
