To the Brewers of California,

It is with great excitement that I invite you to participate in the 6th annual Brewers Cup of California, a celebration of the most innovative and high-quality beers from our state’s independent craft brewers.

Organized by the Sacramento Area Brewers Guild, the Brewers Cup has grown to be one of the largest in the nation. Our last competition, held in March 2025, featured 1,360 entries from 203 talented independent craft breweries. We look forward to even more participation this year, with the continued support from the brewers guilds throughout California.

We look forward to highlighting the immense talent of California’s breweries and encourage you to take part in supporting and celebrating craft brewing excellence and innovation. If you have any questions, please email us.

Wishing the best of luck to this year’s participants!
