WAHA Competitions

The Washington Homebrewers Association recognizes homebrewing competitions as a great way to stimulate brewing, get feedback on beer, and promote involvement in the homebrewing community.  We will be working to raise the bar on homebrewing competitions in Washington through assistance of competition organizers and staff. 

Additionally, the WAHA may help organize occasional interclub competitions (though it is desired that individual clubs run the competitions). 

Check this section for the latest on Washington homebrewing competitions.

If you have a competition that you want to get the word out on, please contact the WAHA Competition Committee Chair and we'll help get it posted.  Or fill out this Competition Announcement Form and submit your competition information.

If you are wanting to register your competition as a Washington Awards Qualifying Competition, please go to the Awards Section and read the details there.

The Washington Homebrewers Association is looking for competition organizer tips and suggestions to help create a practical reference for competition organizers.  If you have organized a competition or just helped out with one and learned some good things to do and not to do, please take a second and fill out this form to help capture your lessons.  We will work to compile the information collected into a set of practical tips and best practices for competition organizers.  Thanks for your time!
