Announcing the Winners of the 7th Annual New York International Beer Competition!

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

The 7th Annual NYIBC Took Place on February 11th, 2018 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 7th 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 8th Annual New York International Beer Competition, slated for Sunday February 10th, 2019 in the heart of New York City at the 3 West Club.
