Description

The 2023 Western Carolinas Homebrewers Festival, put on by the Lincolnton Brewers’ Club, in collaboration with Communities in Schools of Lincoln County, is looking to hold The Western Carolina Homebrew Festival event April 29th , 2023 at Untapped Territory in Lincolnton, NC. This Festival is the first "OPEN TO THE PUBLIC” Homebrewer Festival ever in North Carolina! Previously, these type festivals were private, and exclusive only to dues paying members of Brew Clubs. In 2019, North Carolina officially passed legislature that now allows non-members to Home Brew events! This year we are inviting clubs from ALL of NC, SC, VA, TN, GA, and even the DC/MD area to come join us! We want to invite people to this ticketed event to support not just the clubs, but also help support fundraising for a great cause in our community that has ties to members of our club. We plan to hold it in the exterior courtyard area in the back of Untapped Territory and will have a gated one-way entrance/ check in table, as well as an exit only gateway. There will be food vendors, a mini-market area, and live music on Water Street, Academy Street, and Church Street, surrounding Untapped Territory. In the festival area, there will be demonstrations of different aspects of the homebrew process, as well as different techniques. We have all three native breweries of Lincoln County participating as vendors, who will offer a special “festival exclusive” brew, as well as other pro breweries from all participating states, as well as the local wineries of Lincoln County, and other pro adult beverage makers. All vendors will be outside of the homebrew area of the festival, commercial brewers as well as equipment vendors. Come join in for an afternoon of fun!
