Examples from GABF Winners List 2019
Gold Medal: Chronic Amber Ale - Pizza Port - Bressi Ranch – Carlsbad, CA
ABV – 4.9%
Notes: Historically brewed with hemp seeds, Chronic Ale has been a staple at Pizza Port for over a decade! This mellow amber ale is the most popular beer in all of our pub locations as it agrees with everyone’s palate and goes great with pizza. It was a dream come true to finally put it in a can and give people the chance to carry it with them wherever they go!
Silver Medal: Cousin Jack - Dostal Alley Brewpub & Casino – Central City, CO
ABV – 4.2%
Notes: A local favorite for over ten years. Our Pub Ale is a English style best bitter. A session ale with plenty of flavor. Always a big hit with home brewers
