The MBA is excited to host the inaugural Montana Beer Awards, our state’s first commercial, state-wide beer competition. This event will be a celebration and showcase of the incredible, unique, and passionate work of Montana’s craft brewers, and will be open to any commercially made beer produced in Montana. The competition will feature 19 award categories and will be judged using the 2023 Brewers Association beer style guidelines.
Any commercial brewery may enter beers brewed entirely in Montana into the competition, whether they are an MBA member or not. The cost to enter the competition will be $45 per beer for MBA members and $65 per beer for non-members.
In addition, awards will be given to the Small (<500 bbls), Medium (501 – 2,000 bbls), and Large (>2,001 bbls) Brewery of The Year. To recognize the central role breweries play in communities across Montana, the Impact Award will also be given to a brewery working to improve their surrounding community. Check out the list of award categories, how to enter, and more information here.
