El Barcelona Beer Festival 2019 cerraba el telón y no lo pudo hacer de mejor manera que con la entrega de premios a las mejores cervezas artesanas del Beer Challenge.
El Premio a la Mejor cervecera 2019 se lo llevó el equipo de Cerveses La Pirata, que se llevó la doble satisfacción de ganar y hacerlo al mismo tiempo en casa ya que tienen la fábrica en Suria, un municipio de la comarca del Bages en la provincia de Barcelona.
Otro de los galardones más esperados es el de la mejor Mejor cervecera novel, que premia a las nuevas iniciativas brewers, y que recayó en Cervecera Península, madrileños que han conseguido hacerse un hueco en el panorama de la cerveza artesana nacional.
Un total de 218 cerveceras de todo el mundo han participado (22 países), sumando 1.112 cervezas participantes en el Beer Challenge, cuya cata de jurados lo tuvo complicado para elegir a los ganadores.
