The Great American Beer Festival (GABF) Pro-Am competition is a chance for homebrewers to team up with a commercial brewery to bring a homebrew-inspired beer to the masses. The beer is entered into the GABF Pro-Am competition to see how it stands up to other commercially-produced homebrew recipes.
Take a look at the 2016 GABF Pro-Am entries below, check out the competition results and keep an eye out for the winning homebrew recipes in an upcoming Zymurgy issue.
