Our intraclub home-brew competition.
The BOMBing Run is an annual intraclub home-brew competition for members of the Band of Media Brewers. It is where we brew previously agreed upon styles four times a year, and taste and declare a winner. It's for fun, to learn and for bragging rights. Want to learn more, click below. See results for current and past BOMBing Runs below.

2017 BOMBing Run Recap
Our first year and gosh, it sure was a blast. Lots of BOMBers present to vote at each BOMBing Run Round and lots of great beers. It was hard to choose the People's Choice, but what home-brew ever turns away from hard work. The styles and scores are summarized below. Enjoy some pictures as well. It was a tough fight till the end, but ultimately Mike Kinsely walked away with the inaugural win, after a tie that was broken after tallying total votes through out all rounds. Congrats to Mike!!
