Miami Area Society of Homebrewers

What is it?

The Coconut Cup homebrew competition began Eleven years ago as a challenge between the Miami Area Society of Homebrewers (MASH) and the Ft. Lauderdale Area Brewers (FLAB) homebrewing clubs. Participation over the past 11 years has grown to include other Florida homebrewing clubs and we have invited homebrewers from all over to participate in our competition. 2008 will be the seventh year that the Coconut Cup will be sanctioned by the American Homebrewers Association.
