Greetings you freaking legend 🙂 Super amped to spend a rad day raising funds with you!

Planning for the 2022 event is well under way and stoked to return to its home at the Kloof SPCA paddocks again this year. The goal is to make this event exclusive to home brewers but to do this we need to achieve over 70 pledges. I’m encouraging local businesses to help us get to the 70 pledges by sponsoring ingredient vouchers or ingredients but at this stage I haven’t had enough interest to guarantee a voucher for everyone. In the meantime get your pledge in and just say if you need the voucher or not and I’ll do my best to get those sponsors in 🙂

Brewers will get a drinking ticket per pledge (18 litres) and hopefully some other goodies depending on sponsors. If you’d like a buddy/partner to join you for the day you will need to donate a brew on their behalf or they’ll need to buy a ticket. Brewers are also encouraged to pledge more than one batch where possible – each pledge has the potential of raising R1,080 so the more the merrier (in more ways than one 😀 ).

There’ll be a competition for best brew where the 3 most popular beers voted by the public will win prizes – prizes to be announced closer to the event.

If you aren’t kegging yet it’s not a problem, you can pour from bottles.

Beers need to be able to be poured in 200ml and 400ml portions
A station will be made up of 4-6 x 18lt brews and each station will have a 3x3m (gazebo sized) area to work from. Brewers will be allocated into suitable stations closer to the time. It is recommended that each station has an area to serve from (bar/table), chairs for pourers, a gazebo/shelter and whatever requirements to store and pour your beer from. Stations will only be supplied with ice. Areas will be allocated on a first come first serve basis on the day.
Do you have a table, gazebo or a spare tap you can share? This will help when allocating brewers to stations.
Do you need a pourer on the day, shelter or a table? If you plan to dispense by tap please ensure you secure your system.
