UK winners have been announced in this year’s Craft Beer Marketing Awards, revealed at the Craft Brewers’ Conference in the US last week.
The 2022 Craft Beer Awards presentation ceremony in Minneapolis
This is a worldwide competition that focuses specifically on excellence in the artistic and creative marketing and packaging efforts of breweries, designers, and agencies in the sector.
A total of 250 awards were presented to brewers, designers, and marketing agencies from throughout the world. Judges comprised 500 industry professionals.
“After having to do virtual awards ceremonies for 2020 and 2021 because of the pandemic, it was really exciting for the CBMAS to take the stage to present the awards in the most popular categories,” said awards co-founder Jackie DiBella-Curry.
“It was a wonderful experience to meet so many of our winners in person at the ceremony. Everyone was so excited!”
