Hello everyone. Hopefully you’ve been following the latest on the AHA and us going independent to become [**a new 501(c) org**](https://homebrewersassociation.org/news/april-2025-update-on-ahas-independence/). It’s huge news for both your national association and also the future of homebrewing and our hobby. To get engaged scan [**HomebrewersAssociation.org**](https://homebrewersassociation.org/), sign up for AHA’s free newsletter and keep on keepin on in the AHA Forum. Better yet become a member and help us make history, again, for the hobby while we help you with unmatched reasons, recipes (validated!), rewards and resources. While I’m at, it please consider checking out the running history and AHA’s [**new Strategic Plan**](https://homebrewersassociation.org/membership/american-homebrewers-association/) for 2025. Our amazing new Founding Board created it as a place to ground us and establish where we will grow. Also, the below graphic represents all that the AHA does and what members tap into for less than $50 a year. Cheers and good beers to you all.

I want to say thanks to you, the Founding board, and everyone else involved with the changeover. You’ve undertaken an enormous task and I have confidence you’ll all do the best for the organization. The forum may have taken a bit longer to xition, but it works. All the functionality and wealth of great info made it! Thanks to you all and I look forward to the new era of the AHA. ---
