Veliki američki festival piva ove godine je napunio 40 godina.
Udruženje pivara
Postoje festivali piva, a tu je i Veliki američki festival piva. Najveći festival piva na svijetu, događaj je dijelom pijani festival, dijelom ozbiljna konkurencija piva s najboljim pivarama u zemlji koja se bore za jedan od događaja za koje se priželjkuje zlatna, srebrna i bronzana medalja.
Domaćin manifestacije je Udruženje pivara, a ove godine slavi 40. rođendan i povratak festivala nakon dvije godine odsustva zbog COVID-a.
Ove godine u konkurenciju su se prijavile 2154 pivare sa fantastičnim 9,904 piva. Ove godine je ocjenjivano preko 177 različitih stilova piva (da, toliko ih je), ali 325 različitih sudija. Prosječan broj prijavljenih piva u svakoj kategoriji je 99, a najveći broj piva je, kao i uvijek, u kategoriji American Style India Pale Ale. Ove godine je 268 pivara otišlo s medijama, od kojih 18 po prvi put. Prvi put je ušla 301 pivara.
Evo ko je otišao kao pobednik:
