Online entries are now open for the Brewers Guild of New Zealand Beer Awards 2024.

Now in their 18th year, the New Zealand Beer Awards (NZBA) recognise excellence in the production of beer, and in the broader brewing industry.  

Entrants do not have to be a Brewers Guild Member to enter. The competition is open to commercial brewers of all production sizes in New Zealand, and the Champion International Brewery Trophy is open to entries from commercial brewers outside of New Zealand.

Entrants compete for champion brewery trophies, industry awards, beer style trophies as well as the two most coveted awards, Champion New Zealand Brewing Company, and Champion New Zealand Beer.

The Brewers Guild says that new Entry guide and Style Guidelines have been updated for 2024 and these are available online.

Entries in the New Zealand Beer Awards are open until 16 June and the awards will be announced at an event to be held in Auckland on 3 August.
