🍻 BIG BREW DAY 2026 🍻

It’s that time… kettles are firing, hops are flying, and garages/backyards/breweries across Pittsburgh are in full brew mode.

Whether you’re dialing in a comp beer, trying something new, or just here for the chaos… we want to see it 👀

TRASH Pirates – First Meeting 🏴‍☠️

We kicked off the first TRASH Pirates session with a focus on what this group is all about — preparing beers for competition and elevating our process as brewers. 🍻

We worked through beers with intention: evaluating against style, discussing what judges look for, and giving honest, constructive feedback to help each other improve before sending beers out into competitions across the country. 📝

That’s the goal — not just to enter comps, but to show up prepared and represent Pittsburgh and TRASH across the nation. 🥇

Watch out, Here we come! 👀

Next Meeting - June 3rd

🍻 TRASH ###IV 🍻

Huge THANK YOU to all of our participants!

With nearly 300 entries, not every beer, mead, or cider can place—and we know that can be tough. But here’s the truth:

👉 We don’t just celebrate the winners—we celebrate everyone who shows up.

Most entries won’t be recognized with a medal… but every single one represents time, effort, learning, and passion for the craft.

We all started somewhere.
And every batch makes you better.

Your dedication to the homebrew competition community does not go unnoticed—we appreciate you more than you know.

💪 Keep brewing.
🔥 Keep improving.
🍺 Keep hustling.

We are beyond grateful for the amazing support behind this year’s competition!

🔥 Several incredible breweries have signed on to take part in a collaboration brew, showcasing what makes the Pittsburgh beer scene so special.

🏡 A huge thank you to Grist House Craft Brewery — our host site and largest sponsor. This event wouldn’t be possible without them.

🎁 We’re also lucky to have amazing partners who have donated prizes for our awards ceremony — helping us celebrate the talent and hard work of our homebrewers.

💛 This competition is more than just judging beer — it’s about community, collaboration, and supporting the roots of craft brewing.

Cheers to everyone who made this possible 🍺
