Goat Patch Brewing Company Wins Silver Award At World Beer Cup

COLORADO SPRINGS, CO — Goat Patch Brewing Company claimed a silver award in the 2022 World Beer Cup®, a global beer competition that evaluates beers from around the world and recognizes the most outstanding brewers and their beers.

Awards were given in 103 beer-style categories during the World Beer Cup award ceremony on May 5, 2022 at the Minneapolis Convention Center in Minnesota.

Goat Patch Brewing Company was awarded a silver award in the Scottish-Style Ale beer style category for its It Takes a Tribe Red Ale, a smooth, full-bodied Ale brewed with rich caramel malts and Warrior hops, you can find this beer in GPB’s taproom on draft and available to go in crowlers and growlers. It Takes a Tribe Red Ale is also featured in 60+ different bars and restaurants across the greater Colorado Springs area.

"We are so honored to receive this award! It certainly feels good to get recognition for our team’s hard work, and we hope this can bring more awareness about how this beer supports our community focused initiative” says co-owner and head-brewer, Darren Baze.

"As the very first recipe created on our pilot system, It Takes a Tribe Red Ale has served as our full time community beer since the day we opened our doors. With each pint purchased, Goat Patch donates 25 cents towards featured local nonprofits that rotate annually. This beer allows our patrons to join us in learning more about the amazing work happening right here in our neighborhood and give back in a tangible way”.

World Beer Cup winners were selected by an international panel of 226 beer judges from 28 countries. Widely regarded as the “Olympics of Beer,” the 2022 World Beer Cup was the largest competition to date with 10,542 entries from 2,493 breweries in 57 countries.

Presented by the Brewers Association, the World Beer Cup has been held biennially since 1996, to celebrate the art and science of brewing by recognizing outstanding achievement. For additional information, visit the World Beer Cup website.
