Chilibrew returns to Baltimore this Spring to unite hombrewers and chefs in our 15th celebration of the DIY spirit! Chilibrew is a chili and homebrew pairing competition being held on Saturday, April 26th from 2-4:30 PM at Zion Church of the City of Baltimore. Tickets are exclusively available online until 1:30PM on April 26th, 2025. Those up for the challenge may act as both brewer and chili chef.

Chilibrew XV attendees serve as judges for the event, casting their votes for Best Chili, Best Homebrew, and Best Pairing from our competitors' submissions. An accompanying Judges Panel will also determine their favorite selections in a hedonistic review. CA$H prizes will be awarded to the winners of "People's Choice" and "Judges Choice" for all 3 categories, with a Bonus Prize being awarded to the Best Fermented Condiment (optional for competitors).

But more than anything, attendees and competitors alike will have the opportunity to mingle and share food, drinks, and ideas in the service of local nonprofits.

Over the years, Chilibrew has donated thousands of dollars to local, nonprofit beneficiaries in the Greater Baltimore Area. This year, proceeds will benefit Blue Water Baltimore, whose mission is to restore the quality of Baltimore’s rivers, streams and Harbor to foster a healthy environment, a strong economy and thriving communities. Coincidentally, 2025 also marks Blue Water Baltimore's 15th year as an organization!

Whether you’re looking to have a great time in support of a great cause or throw your culinary craft into the ring, we hope you’ll join us on April 26th at 2 PM at Zion Church of the City of Baltimore for Chilibrew XV.

Must be 21 years of age or older to attend/compete/volunteer (bring photo ID). No outside beverages are permitted. All tickets include a custom Chilibrew XV glass and unlimited sampling of homebrew and chili while supplies last.
