Let’s Talk the Future of Homebrewing and AHA’s New Vision

November 5, 2025

Let’s talk the future of homebrewing and AHA’s new vision—a homebrewer in every neighborhood and a homebrew club in every community—with the AHA Founding Board.

Since going independent in January 2025 the American Homebrewers Association Founding Board of Directors and new staff have been busy. If you’ve ever wondered about the potential for the future of homebrewing as a generational hobby, homebrew clubs and the AHA then this is the Zymurgy Live for you. Bonus: This Zymurgy Live is open to the public and not limited to AHA members.
