Messenger Coffee and The Roasterie are teaming up to host three categories of competition: Brewers Cup, Roaster, and Coffee in Good Spirit:

- Coffee in Good Spirit must prepare + serve coffee cocktails for taste judges.
The US Coffee Championship (USCC) is held to celebrate the passion for coffee competitions, empowering local communities to organize and host official USCC events.
