Do You Homebrew? Enter Your Craft Beer in Ramona's ChuckAlek Competition
Local businesses are teaming up to find Ramona's best home-brewed beer.

With the recent addition of Ramona's ChuckAlek Ind. Brewers, locals don't have to travel far for a craft beer. But some people craft up sudsy concoctions inside the comfort of their own homes.
ChuckAlek is giving a nod to homebrews and is teaming up with Ramona Brew Supply, Star B Buffalo Ranch and Hop Farm, and The Homebrewer to put on the first ever Ramona Homebrew Competition.
Homebrewers from around Ramona and the entire San Diego County are welcome to enter their beers under any Beer Judge Certification Program-approved category.
