Homebrewing with Shelly

The Brewers Association reacted quickly to the cancellation of events and brought us CBC Online (a virtual version of their annual industry gathering) back in April.   They have taken what they learned there to bring us Homebrew Con Online! For 42 years, Homebrew Con (and the American Homebrewers Association) have brought homebrewers from all over the globe together with experts in the field and supplies to enhance homebrewing skills (and have a great time).  While homebrewers cannot share their beer together this year, the BA will host three days of seminars, demonstrations and meet-ups along with a virtual expo and happy hour for attendees to enjoy. Our Bell’s General Store is excited to have a booth as part of their virtual expo and host our very own live 20-minute showcase followed by a Q&A session. We are very excited to continue to share the story of our homebrew roots here at Bell’s as well as talk about the high quality homebrew kits and ingredients we have to offer.  In addition, we are very proud to be the presenting sponsor of the Closing Ceremony and Awards Show at the end of this year’s online conference. Larry Bell got his start homebrewing (homebrew roots!) and this marks our seventh year partnering with the AHA. So, what are you waiting for? (Fun fact: did you know that AHA members get 10% off every homebrew purchase at our General Store?) The cost to attend Homebrew Con Online is $99 for AHA members and $132 for new members (includes a 1-year digital AHA membership). More about Homebrew Con Online is available here.
