Winners Announced In The 2010 U.S. Open Beer Championship
- Mutineer Magazine
The U.S. Open Beer Championship is different from all other beer
competitions for one reason: homebrewers are allowed to compete in direct
competition with professional breweries — which is really awesome. More than
700 beers in 50 different categories were submitted in what would become an
epic ‘battle royale’ of world class beer.
“This competition is significant because it accepts entries from breweries
around the world and allows national winning homebrewers to compete.” — Dow
Scoggins, director of the U.S. Open Beer Championships. “More than 700 beers
were submitted, and although all the top 10 winning breweries were based in
the U.S. this year, at least 20 international breweries representing Canada,
Belgium, Germany, England and Brazil also medaled.”
