BrewDog Wins Big at the 2026 World Beer Awards with a Sweeping Show of Brewing Excellence
BrewDog is adding another impressive chapter to its international craft beer story after taking home multiple honors at the BrewDog World Beer Awards 2026, with three of its beers earning Gold medals and Scotland Country Winner titles. The awards recognize a broad selection of the Scottish brewery’s portfolio, from the hazy and tropical character of Hazy Jane to the highly drinkable Wingman Session IPA and the indulgent Mackie’s Two Scoops flavored stout. Several additional BrewDog beers also earned Silver and Bronze recognition, giving the brewery a strong showing across multiple beer categories. This winning performance at the BrewDog World Beer Awards 2026 highlights the brewery’s commitment to excellence.

The results are particularly notable because BrewDog’s winning lineup demonstrates the range of its brewing portfolio. Hazy Jane continues to represent BrewDog’s modern approach to hazy IPA, while Wingman showcases a lower-ABV, highly approachable interpretation of the IPA category. At the same time, Mackie’s Two Scoops demonstrates the brewery’s willingness to explore dessert-inspired and flavored beer styles. Punk IPA, one of BrewDog’s defining beers, also earned recognition, along with Lost Lager, Black Heart and the Mello non-alcoholic range.
The awards arrive during an important transition for BrewDog as the internationally recognized Scottish craft beer company moves into its next phase under Tilray Brands. Tilray’s ownership and global beverage platform provide BrewDog with expanded opportunities to develop its international presence while maintaining the identity, innovation and recognizable beer portfolio that helped make the brand famous.
The 2026 World Beer Awards results therefore offer more than a collection of medals: they provide another snapshot of the brewing quality and broad consumer appeal behind one of the world’s most recognizable craft beer brands. With Hazy Jane, Wingman and Mackie’s Two Scoops leading the medal haul and established favorites such as Punk IPA, Lost Lager and Black Heart also receiving recognition, BrewDog enters its next chapter with plenty of award-winning momentum.
