symons Peter's original motivation to start brewing was the lack of decent ale in our land of megaswill lager. He has now been brewing for over 11 years, moving to all grain in 2000 after backing Brew (what else) in the Melbourne Cup and buying a 60L kettle, burner and more from his winnings.

He is a member of Extra Special Brewers homebrew club, a great bunch of guys who fearlessly do sensory evaluation every month.

He has completed the Graduate Certificate in Brewing from Ballarat University, has judged at state and national levels and is currently at BJCP Recognised level.

He won the Lallemand scholarship through membership of AHA in 2008 and attended the Concise Course in Brewing Technology for 2 weeks in Chicago in November 2009.

About Us

TV presenter Paul Mercurio and Fosters' Mick Jontef at ANHC 2008

Looking forward to its second conference, ANHC is the brain-child of John Preston, who has attended the American National Homebrew Conference twice and enjoyed it so much he decided he had to have one here. John pulled together a collection of the smartest and best-looking homebrewers in Melbourne to put together the inaugural ANHC in 2008.

A not for profit organisation, ANHC's primary goals are to:

» improve the quality of homebrewed beer,
» raise awareness of homebrewing and quality craft beers,
» share brewing knowledge and experience, and
» provide inspiration, ideas and motivation for you to brew.
