Each year, your American Homebrewers Association (AHA) Governing Committee selects a recipient for the AHA Governing Committee Recognition Award. First issued in 1988 to Fred Eckhardt, the award honors outstanding service to the community of homebrewers.
We’re excited to announce that the 2015 AHA Governing Committee Recognition award was given to none other than Stan Hieronymus.
Since 1993, Hieronymus has been in the beer and homebrewing scene and has made a huge impact on homebrewing community—especially their bookshelves. You know him as the author of the Brewers Publication titles Brewing with Wheat: The ‘Wit’ and ‘Weizen’ of World Wheat Beer Styles, Brew Like a Monk: Trappist, Abbey and Strong Belgian Ales and How to Brew Them and For the Love of Hops: The Practical Guide to Aroma, Bitterness and the Culture of Hops, as well as RealBeer.com and the AppellationBeer.com.
Hieronymus was unable to attend the 2015 National Homebrewers Conference in San Diego, but he graciously prepared an acceptance video which you can watch below. Congratulations Stan!
