The 2024 World Beer Cup awards were held at The Venetian Las Vegas on April 24th, celebrating brewing excellence on an international scale. This competition, organized by the Brewers Association, recognized beers from around the world, making it a truly global event with judges from all corners of the globe.
Unlike other beer competitions, the World Beer Cup awarded gold, silver, and bronze medals to the top three entries in over 100 categories. This ensured that only the finest examples of each style of beer were recognized and given consumers confidence in the quality of the brands awarded.
Chris Williams, the competition director, emphasized that evaluating beer is a form of peer review on a professional level. The results were made public so that consumers could see which beers met high standards of quality and exemplified different styles as interpreted by the judges.
Judges had the discretion to award beers in any one or more of the three award places without necessarily awarding all three medals in a category. This flexibility allowed for recognition of exceptional beers even if they did not receive a gold medal.
The World Beer Cup is known as “The Olympics of Beer Competitions” and winning an award is a prestigious achievement for breweries around the world. It is a testament to their dedication to their craft and their ability to produce outstanding beers that are recognized by industry professionals and consumers alike.
