ABK Beer has completed a record-breaking haul of medals and awards, including being nominated as the Brewery of the Year, winning 3 Gold Medals and 2 Silver Medals as well as ABK’s Edel beer being named as Best German Beer in Show, at the London Beer Competition 2024
Judged by a panel of independent beer experts, sommeliers and drinks journalists, the London Beer Competition, part of the Beverage Trade Network, is designed to reward and promote those beer brands that beer drinkers really want to buy, while also having a clear market value for trade buyers and distributors.
The competition judges recognise that for any beer brand to be listed and remain on a retailer's shelf or a restaurant’s beer list, it has to be not only of the highest quality (based on appearance, aroma, body, taste and aftertaste) but also value for money.
Commenting, Jonathan Kendrick, the co-founder and Chairman of the ROKiT Group of Companies said, “It’s always tremendous for our world-class range of beers to be awarded medals in blind-tasting competitions but, on this occasion, to also be recognised as Brewery of the Year and to win Best in Show at the prestigious London Beer Competition is particularly rewarding.
