No Business Mountain

Homebrew Competition

Bushels & Barrels and Scuffle Hill Brewing are pleased to partner for the 5th No Business Mountain Homebrew Competition, a non-sanctioned event. Homebrewers are invited to test their best brews against others in the region for bragging rights and a variety of prizes! Winners will be announced at Bushels & Barrels Local Food, Beer and Wine Festival on Saturday June 15, 2024 at Reynolds Homestead. 

No Business Mountain is beautifully situated on the historic Rock Spring Plantation now known as Reynolds Homestead. The legend behind its name is grounded in oral stories passed down through many generations. It's said the mountain was full of rattlesnakes and moonshine stills, therefore we had NO BUSINESS being up there. The innovative and entrepreneurial mindset has also been shared between the generations. The idea of homebrewing embodies many concepts that run deep in the rich history of this region: placing importance on locally sourced and produced products.

Join us in showcasing your own locally sourced and produced products while perfecting your skills, networking with like-minded individuals, and celebrating the history of No Business Mountain!
