This competition of reference for professionals in the brewing world is managed by a panel of professional and certified tasters. This year, the competition was held by Gilles Pudlowski, a gastronomy journalist and drinks critic.

The France Beer Challenge’s legitimacy is ensured by its independent status, as well as in its selection of tasters. For a full neutrality, no French brewer can be a part of the jury.

The beers are judged by corresponding style categories (IPA, Stout) and they must meet high standard requirements.

Our brewery received two awards in two categories:

  • A gold medal for the Amber in the following category: Pale & Amber Ale, American Pale & Amber Ale.
  • A bronze medal for the Blanche in the following category: Wheat & other cereals beer, Weizen type wheat beer without added ingredients.
