Announcing the Winners of the 8th Annual New York International Beer Competition!

Thanks to everyone who came out for our eighth smash year in New York City!

The 8th Annual NYIBC Took Place on February 10th, 2019 in New York City

At the New York International Beer Competition, we were delighted with the quality of beer submissions that we received in our 8th year. We were proud to showcase our 600+ beer submissions from 14 different countries.

Our trade-buyer-only judging panel judged the beers both by their category and actual price. We are already excited for next year’s 9th Annual New York International Beer Competition, slated for Sunday February 9th, 2019 in the heart of New York City at the 3 West Club.

Be sure to check out our sister site, the Alcohol Professor, for daily updates on the liquor and hospitality industries, and featuring winners from the NYIBC. Written for the trade and the enlightened consumer.
