Georgia Craft Brewers Guild Announces Festival Winners

Cheers!

The Georgia Craft Brewers Guild has announced the winners of their 2024 Georgia Craft Brewers Festival Collaboration Competition. If you’re looking for some great craft beer — this list of winners is a great place to start.

The Georgia Craft Brewers Guild hosted the Georgia Craft Brewers Festival in May, and part of what makes this fun festival so unique is their Collaboration Brews Competition.

These member breweries (and collaborators!) entered their craft beer creations into the 2024 competition and beat out stiff competition to bring home wins.

Cheers to the winners!
