We’re lucky here in Charlotte to be situated near several well-run annual competitions. The Southeastern Homebrewers Association (SHA) now spans six states, and boasts 28 member clubs and twelve competitions.  The circuit has Brewer of the Year, Mead & Cider Maker of the Year, and Club of the Year awards.  Each award is determined by a cumulative roll-up of the results from all eleven of the SHA competitions held in GA, NC, SC, TN, and VA each calendar year.  Connect with SHA on Facebook.
