This year's edition was our most successful yet... with 36 home-brewed beers submitted, the judges definitely had their work cut out for them !
Similarly to last year, home-brewers could submit their creations by category :
Last year the jury saw a majority of hoppy beers submitted, and the year before that there was an emphasis on saison and farmhouse beers.
All five categories where evenly distributed this year, with 6-7 beers in each category - with the exception of the 'houblonnées' category which had 10 beers.
The jury was composed of craft beer professionals :
Their in-depth knowledge and passion for beer & brewing were key for tasting, analysing and grading each home-brew according to the BJCP Beer Style Guidelines.
Prizes included a day of brewing in a professional brewery courtesy of the Brasserie des Ligures; a 10€ gift card to be spent at Allez Hops cave à bière; brewing and bottling equipment courtesy of local craft breweries; brewing ingredients; a bottle of artisanal gin crafted by Noiseless beers; t-shirts, packs of beer, bottle openers... all things beer!
