HOOD RIVER — Pfriem Family Brewing scored more golds for its beer, this month at the World Beer Cup in Philadelphia.
Pfriem won gold medals in the Kellerbier or zwickel-beer category for its Kellerbier, and in the Belgian-style spontaneous sour category for its Spontanee. The brewery took bronze in the Rice Lager category, new this year, for its Japanese lager.
The awards were presented April 22 during the annual conference of The Brewers Association, which sponsors the cup. The international event is known informally as the “Beer Olympics.” While dominated by U.S. entries, beers also came from countries such as Germany, Belgium, Japan, Ecuador, Honduras, Italy and Australia.
Judging was done in 113 categories; 1,611 breweries submitted a total of 8,166 beers. Judges hailed from the U.S., Japan, Argentina, Brazil, Peru, Germany and Czech Republic.
