Chucktown Brewdown: Homebrew Festival

Fam’s Brewing Co’s homebrew festival and brewery anniversary party, Chucktown Brewdown, returns on Saturday, April 22, from 1pm-5pm.

This year our head brewer, Justin, is challenging Lowcountry homebrewers to brew their best Brown Ale. The homebrewers will also have other beer styles available for tasting.  

Each team will compete for their favorite local nonprofit and have a chance to brew their winning beer with our brewers and have their beer on tap at our brewery. 

Guests can drink and talk with the homebrewers, listen to live music, play games on the patio, and enjoy a pint of Fam’s Brewing Co’s 6th-anniversary beer and some pizza.

Tickets go on sale at 10am Wednesday, March 22.

First 100 people to buy tickets on March 22 will save $15 per ticket.

Early General Admission tickets starting on Thursday, March 23 will be $20 ($10 savings per ticket)

Tickets on April 22 will be $30.

Advanced sales are highly recommended. Day of sales is not guaranteed as they will be limited to capacity.

Chucktown Brewdown is made possible with the help of our friends at Beer Engineer Supply, who is the official supplier of all homebrew ingredients.
