The competition brought together breweries, beer professionals, HoReCa (hotel, restaurant, catering) representatives, journalists, and beer enthusiasts from Greece and abroad. It aims to promote quality beer and strengthen beer culture across the Mediterranean and Europe.
Crispy Pils, by Strange Brew Athens, was named top lager, and Soul of the Party, from Midnight Circus Gypsy Brewing, top ale.
International awards were also presented, with Poland’s Browar Trzech Kumpli and Italy’s Mister B Brewery attracting attention, while Hop Thirsty Friends stood out from Cyprus. The full list of winners can be seen here.
This year, the awards were given official endorsement by the European Beer Consumers Union, further strengthening the competition’s international profile and credibility.
At the same time, Markus Raupach was announced as the new technical director of the institution, starting from next year.
