It's back for 2013 DromJohn: http://maconoctoberfest.com/about/home/

I'm not trying to pick a fight here. I think it's a matter of context. The middle GA area didn't even have a growler retailer until last week. Folks around here would be honored to have their brews commercially produced even if by a startup brewery.

The prize for this event is much greater than the typical contest. The winning brew will be commercially produced by Macon Beer Company and be featured at the following year's event. In addition, all proceeds from the event go to local charities. It's a good prize and a good cause.

Macon Beer Company is a brewery that is starting this summer. It will not have the capacity for lagers until after the 2014 Octoberfest event. All lager styles will be accepted once the brewery can produce lagers.
