Organizers

Carolina BrewMasters

The Carolina BrewMasters is a non-profit club whose members enjoy making, tasting, and sharing beer, mead, and cider. Recently, the Carolina BrewMasters became the very first American Homebrewers Association "Radegast Club of the Year" winner! Our 200-plus members live in or around the Charlotte, NC metropolitan area and range in experience level from beginner to expert at making great home brews. The club meets at 6:30pm the first Wednesday of each month at Dilworth Neighborhood Grille where we discuss club activities, hold educational presentations and enjoy a sampling of home-brewed beer. We also hold monthly brew sessions at a member's house, which presents opportunities to learn about different methods, systems and gadgets that other home brewers use. CBM members also regularly enter home brew competitions, including our own US Open held each May in Charlotte.
