“We are very excited to be working with Tipple,” said Ruth Evans, chief executive of the BFBI. Their beer and cider expertise will help us access a wider, newer audience, whilst supporting and communicating our core heritage and robust judging credentials.”
Amelie Tassin, founder and co-owner of Tipple Marketing, added: “It is an honour for us at Tipple to work with BFBI on the legendary International Brewing & Cider Awards.
“Those awards are among the most prestigious and rigorous in the world, and we can’t wait to bring our touch to their strategy, help them reach a wider audience, and spread the word about their excellence. It is the award any brewery and cidermaker should want to win!”
The International Brewing & Cider Awards is the oldest brewing competition in the world, dating back 140 years. In 2026, the BFBi wants to re-focus on their unique judging process.
The Manchester-based competition will be followed by a new trade event, open to all in the beer and cider industry, and free to attend.
The awards will be held in Manchester from 3rd-5th March, 2026.
