Beer Search Party at GABF – Part 3

Today dawned bright and early for awards day!

Brewdad Mike (recent winner of the CanFest blogger contest) and I headed back towards the convention center to learn which beers were deemed the best for 2012.

This years ceremony was held in a much bigger space which was well filled despite the early hour and the fact that it overlapped with the Saturday morning session.

And the L.A. scene saw some awards come our way…..

First to win was Smog City!

Beachwood snared two medals.

TAPS grabbed two medals too!

And that was not all that was won. Figueroa Mountain picked up some hardware as did Pizza Port locations and Firestone-Walker too. California did good but the big winner was Devil’s Backbone from Virginia who won medal after medal and will set off many a metal detector on the way home.
