Due to the impacts of COVID, a shortage of staff and volunteers, the California State Fair Home Brew Competition will not take place as part of the 2022 California State Fair. We are working to bring this important competition back for the 2023 California State Fair.
In this competition, homemade Californian homebrews are judged in a formal, professional manner. This competition aims to increase the knowledge, skills and abilities of the amateur brewer.
Funded in part by the Sacramento Convention & Visitors Bureau through funds generated by the Sacramento Tourism Assessment Fee.
