By Full Sail Brewing Company, March 26, 2012
Full Sail Brewing Company has been awarded five medals, including 4 Gold and 1 silver in the first round of the 2012 World Beer Championships, a blind tasting competition conducted by the Beverage Testing Institute (BTI) of Chicago, Illinois. Tasting notes from the competition are available at www.Tastings.com. The competition included beers from many highly respected brewers from around the world including the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and the United States.
“We’re thrilled to once again earn the highest awards for our beers. From our Session Lager to our bourbon barrel-aged beers, balance and elegance are our defining brewery characteristics. We don’t brew our beers to win medals, but we are honored when we do. We know that you, our customers, are the ultimate judges and we strive to consistently brew elegant, complex, and balanced beers with them in mind. Over the years, our passion and commitment have earned us a long list of awards and accolades. Thanks to all our beer fans and friends for your ongoing support,” said Jamie Emmerson, Full Sail’s Executive Brewmaster.
