The Great American Beer Festival Pro-Am (GABF Pro-Am) competition is an opportunity for commercial breweries to team up with amateurs to bring a homebrew recipe to life and vie for top honors.
The winning entries are announced at the GABF Awards Ceremony, and all the entries are served over the course of the Great American Beer Festival in Denver, CO. In 2016, 91 beers were entered into the GABF Pro-Am.
