Washington Beer Awards

We are proud to announce the Washington Brewing Awards, a craft beer competition designed specifically to support Washington’s professional brewers. This competition will provide an opportunity for all of Washington’s craft brewers to compete in a blind format. It will allow recognition of brewing excellence in Washington and provide constructive feedback supporting future competition entry decisions.  The winners of the previous Washington Beer Awards have been posted in the Winners section.  You can find out all of the competition details, entry timelines, and registration information needed to enter and compete here on this website!
