A quick shout-out and kudos here to everyone
winning awards at the 2006 GABF this past weekend. Very happy for
Bear Republic, recipient of the Small Brewery/Brewer of the Year Award. We certainly hope to see more in our area in the near future!
The votes were tallied and 141 different breweries/brewpubs won an assortment of awards across 69 categories. In the spirit of analysis (hopefully, not paralysis), here's a little breakdown that I did after combing through the award winners. Further down the page, I focused a bit closer on the awards earned in the group of states stretching from Northern Virginia to New York.
Interesting note: least amount of entries in a category (8; Baltic-Style Porter) and most (94; American Style IPA)
