Congratulations to the Winners of the SBW Pro-Am Competition

---

A huge round of applause to the winners of this year’s Pro-Am competition, held in collaboration with the New South Wales Homebrewers Association! We’re incredibly grateful to have partnered with @Yakima Chief and @Cryer Malt, whose support helped make this competition possible.

I want to extend my personal thanks to all the brewers and homebrewers who participated. This competition was an exciting opportunity for homebrewers to connect with Sydney Beer Week, and the talent we saw was exceptional. The 12 finalist beers were true standouts—commercially viable examples of creativity and skill. Cheers to everyone who contributed, and congratulations again to our winners!
