BIG BATCH BREW BASH
The Big Batch Brew Bash is the KGB's signature homebrew competition. Started in 1996, it has grown into the largest single-style homebrew competition sanctioned by the American Homebrewers Association.
​
Any homebrewer can enter up to two beers in the BBBB. They will be evaluated by BJCP-associated judges and fully annotated score-sheets will be returned to the brewer.
