ChiliBrew

Chilibrew, Baltimore’s #1 Chili & Homebrew Beer Competition, is coming up! Saturday, April 26th 2pm-4:30pm

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.

Event Format:
Chilibrew XV attendees serve as judges for the event, sampling the entries and casting their votes for Best Chili, Best Homebrew, and Best Pairing from the competing teams.

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 Charmingest" and "Judges Choice" across 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.

Beneficiary:
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!

Baltibrew is pleased to announce the official return of Chilibrew this Spring for it's 15th year! The event will take place at Zion Church of the City of Baltimore, on Saturday afternoon April 26th from 2-4:30pm! This year's nonprofit beneficiary is Blue Water Baltimore, and we couldn't be more thrilled to support such an outstanding organization 🙂

Tickets are available now, and competitor signups are open!

2 weeks away! Last year it sold out a week before the event, so I'd recommend getting your tickets now. All proceeds go towards the Station North Tool Library.

Cheers!

It is with great regret that we inform you that this year's ChiliBrew XV has reached a logistical impasse and has been canceled. We extend our thanks to each and every prospective competitor and attendee for their interest. We have elected to make the decision now to allow the most time for attendees and contestants to make other plans for their October 14th weekend. We have already started the refund process for those who purchased tickets (the full ticket price is being refunded to the account used to make the purchase). This can take more than several days for the payment processor to complete. If a refund is not seen in your account please reach out to this address and we will investigate the issue. The team is evaluating options to bring the event back next year.
