Who We Are
SF's Home for Homebrewers
The San Francisco Homebrewers Guild was established in February 2012 to serve as an organizing force for the local homebrewer community. Our goal is to encourage the art and craft of homebrewing and to bring local brewers together.
We have grown to a network of over 950 local Bay Area beer geeks and homebrewers and going strong. Whether you've been brewing all-grain for years or have barely unpacked your extract starter kit, the SFHG welcomes homebrewers and beer enthusiasts across all spectrums.
Events & Meetings
Something Happening Every Month
Held on the third Wednesday of every month at local SF breweries. Features talks by pro brewers, homebrewers, and beer enthusiasts, plus homebrew shares and plenty of great beer.
Club-only competition series with feedback from certified BJCP judges. Members compete across multiple styles throughout the year for the title of SFHG Homebrewer of the Year.
The beers are crafted, the grill is toasty, and the fog is ever present! SFHG's beloved outdoor gathering featuring a people's choice competition, gear swap, and great homebrew.
Bring bottles of homebrew and holiday cookies to swap with fellow SFHG members. Often paired with a charity fundraiser for local causes.
Behind-the-scenes tours of Bay Area breweries, group brew days, and collaborative pro-am brewing sessions with professional brewers.
