Home brewers in Jefferson Park are dusting off their brewing equipment as Jefferson Park Forward (JPF) has announced its third annual Homebrew Competition, scheduled for Friday, November 12, 2025. The community-focused event aims to showcase local brewing talent while bringing neighbors together to celebrate craft beer culture in the Northwest Side.

The competition, organized by the neighborhood's active community association, serves as both a fundraiser for local initiatives and a platform for amateur brewers to share their creations with the community. JPF, a registered non-profit 501(c)(3) organization, continues its tradition of hosting events that foster neighborhood connections while supporting community programming. Details about registration, judging criteria, and categories will be announced in the coming weeks through the organization's social media channels and website.

Residents interested in participating as competitors or volunteers can contact Jefferson Park Forward directly via email. The competition follows other successful JPF community events this year, including the popular Community Stage at Jeff Fest and seasonal community meetings featuring updates from local businesses and organizations. Beer enthusiasts and community members alike are encouraged to mark their calendars for what promises to be an exciting celebration of neighborhood brewing talent.
