Welcome to the 15th Annual New York International Beer Competition

What Makes The New York International Beer Competition Special?

The New York International Beer Competition (NYIBC) is the only international beer competition where all the judges are real trade buyers judging the beers, non alcohol beers and hard seltzer in a blind taste test by its category and actual price. The trade buyers include beer cicerones, retail store buyers, craft beer bar owners, distributors and importers. The trade buyers you want to introduce to your new product too as well as reconnect with established buyers.

We have only raised our entry fees once in 15 years because we love this industry and we want to support it. Winners will receive a physical 2″ medal, free use of the digital medal image in their marketing materials, the option of buying authorized medal stickers or medal license fee for your bottles and packaging.
