1906 Black Coupage continues to accumulate international success and, for the second time, stands on the podium of the European Beer Star awards, on this occasion with a gold medal for the best beer in the Dunkler Bock category.
The 1906 beer family strengthens its position as one of the biggest award winners internationally by adding another gold medal to its awards. On this occasion, the beer that has reached the top of the podium in the Dunkler Bock category of the European Beer Star is 1906 Black Coupage.
Last night in Nuremberg, the 2019 award ceremony was held, at which Luis Alvar, Hijos de Rivera’s master brewer, collected this latest award celebrating the tradition and know-how of this Galician company.
A total of 2,483 beers made in 47 countries took part in the European Beer Star this year, one of the most demanding contests in the world. This contest, organized by the German beer sector, is highly prestigious as the winners are decided via a thorough evaluation process after a blind tasting in which experts of 32 nationalities take part.
This is the second time that 1906 Black Coupage has won one of these awards as, in 2017, it received a silver medal, which on this occasion has changed to a gold. This is just one example of the successful trajectory of the 1906 beer family that has already accumulated almost 70 awards in different international contests such as the Superior Taste Awards, Monde Selection, Craft Beer Awards, International Beer Challenge and World Beer Awards, among others.
