You don't HAVE to be a rocket scientist to brew beer... but it doesn't hurt!

Commander SAAZ

Commander SAAZ Interplanetary Homebrew Blastoff is the homebrew competition hosted by SAAZ every fall, and features homebrewed beers, meads, ciders from all over the country. One of the largest competitions in Florida, it's also the one with the special "Rocket Fuel" category and the one in which you can have your entries judged by rocket scientists. The competition weekend features a number of social activities in addition to judging and stewarding opportunities. Other homebrew clubs are encouraged to attend and join in on the fun as we celebrate the 25th Annual Commander SAAZ competition in 2019.

Bottoms Up Beer Run

The Bottoms Up Beer Run is a fun 4K held in Melbourne's Wickham Park that combines running (or walking) with samples of home brewed beer and cider along the way. Join us for a fun day of running and sipping homebrew while we raise money for pediatric cancer research.
Proceeds from the race benefit St. Baldrick’s Foundation and SAAZ. Over the past six years, $25,000 has been donated to St. Baldrick's. This year's event will be the 7th Annual Bottoms Up Beer Run.
