HOMEBREWERS UNITE!
Boulder , CO • October 24, 2007— The American Homebrewers Association (AHA) reports a surge of more than 1,300 new members into their organization over the past two years through AHA Rallies held at craft breweries and brewpubs across the country. The AHA Rallies are turning out to be a successful way to bring new and current members together to celebrate the strong ties between America’s professional and amateur craft brewers.
Brewers Association (BA) brewery members host the AHA rallies at their breweries and/or pubs. The rallies often include a VIP brewery tour, beer samples, door prizes, appetizers and a chance to meet the owners and brewers. Rallies are free for AHA members to attend; non-members can join at the door for a discounted rate and participate in all the fun.
Kathryn Porter, Membership Coordinator for the AHA says, “The American Homebrewers Association (AHA) is really trying to create an experience for the AHA member by pairing up homebrewers with craft brewers. It gives them the opportunity to share their passion for beer. Rallies allow our members to have a day to enjoy a local brewery, some beers, snacks, good conversations and meet some new friends.”
