Brampton Mild named best beer in the Midlands
Brampton Mild from Brampton Brewery, has been named the best beer in the Midlands by judges at the SIBA Independent Beer Awards last night, hosted by the Birmingham CAMRA Beer festival.
The awards, run by the Society of Independent Brewers (SIBA), are unique in that the majority of judges are brewers themselves from independent craft breweries across the UK – making them the ‘brewers’ choice awards’ in the industry.
Guy Sheppard, SIBA Chairman said:-
“I would like to congratulate Brampton Brewery on being judged the best beer in the Midlands in these closely fought independent beer awards. The quality of entries this year was extremely high and judges had a difficult job separating the overall winners from a competitive pack. Those named champions in this year’s awards should be hugely proud of their achievement.”
Chris Radford from Chesterfield Champions, Brampton Brewery, accepted the award at the competition, and had this to say on their win:-
“The fact this award is voted for by our peers, by brewers, makes it very special. We brew beer we love and don’t expect to walk away with prizes, but this one means a lot. It’s brewed with love and with passion.”
