It’s always great to see when our regional brewers do well in competitions. It’s even better when they do really well.

The 2022 Scottish National Homebrew Competition was one such occasion, with many ACB brewers bringing their A-game.

As a region, Anglian brewers did amazingly well. They took a total of 11 places on individual tables and swept the board in the “Best of Show”, with Nick Davis’ Marzen, crowned as overall winner. Superb showing from Nick – well done, sir.
