The
Competition
Each October, the
Prairie Homebrewing Companions gather
together the best homebrew from the best homebrewers to determine who is the 'Great Pumpkin'
of brewers. Hoppy
Halloween 2010 was featured on BrewingTV.
The
Hoppy Halloween Challenge is known for its Medals hung from unique
hand-crafted Halloween
themed lanyards.
All BJCP categories
including mead and cider can be entered, but
the Hoppy
Halloween Challenge has a category unique to this competition:
Halloween
Theme Beer:
"Any beer with characteristics that would
identify it as being made for, and in the spirit of, Halloween."
How spooky can you brew?
Full rules for the Halloween Theme
Beer are available HERE.
