Congratulations to this year’s Celebrity Deathmash winning club, Keeper of Craft! Also congratulations to Brandon Edwards on his BOS German Helles Exportbier. This year’s Deathmash was definitely a Battle Royale with only 4 points separating the first and second place clubs with the overall BOS beer being the deciding winning factor. Most clubs brought their A game and placed in at least one category and overall scores for individual beers was high.
Also Many Thanks
We would like to thank Eternity Brewing and Cadillac Straits for serving as drop off sites.
A BIG Thank you to Matt Becker and Brewery Becker for providing the Best of Show prize.
Finally thank you to everyone who entered, organized, stewarded, and judged the competition.
