Our entry into this year’s GABF Pro-Am competition, this recipe was developed by an amateur brewer who suggested the name ‚”Amateur Hour”, a reference to an old TV and radio show that would feature amateur talent. That name, however, was taken so we took the name of a 90’s reboot of the show, the ignorantly named ‚”New Original Amateur Hour”

This is the fourth time we’ve submitted a beer to GABF’s Pro-Am competition. Previous entries have included a Dortmunder Export and Jeff Gladish’s Poblano Double Witbier that won gold in the competition in 2013. In order to qualify for the Pro-Am competition, the homebrewer must be an American Homebrew Association member and the beer must place in an official AHA competition; we use the Best Florida Beer Homebrew Competition as the qualifying competition and we take the gold medal winner’s recipe as our GABF Pro-Am entry
