The European Beer Consumers Union (EBCU), an esteemed advocate for beer consumers throughout Europe, has officially endorsed the Greater Poland Beer Cup competition.

André Brunnsberg, the chairperson of EBCU, commended the organization of the event, emphasizing that it meets the high standards required for EBCU’s endorsement. “The Greater Poland Beer Cup operates with a level of professionalism and objectivity that aligns with our core values. The beers are meticulously judged by a mix of Polish and international beer experts, ensuring that the competition’s results are fair and credible. This endorsement signifies to the beer consumers that the Greater Poland Beer Cup represents a trustworthy evaluation of the beers entered,” Brunnsberg noted.
The EBCU’s endorsement criteria are rigorous, mandating that the judging be conducted blindly and independently, without any influence from participating brewers. The competition’s operations must be transparent, with beers being appropriately handled and presented to the judges.
This endorsement marks the Greater Poland Beer Cup as one of the select few competitions recognized by the EBCU, and it stands as the first such distinction in Poland. The competition’s detailed organization and comprehensive categories, ranging from wheat and rye beers to robust stouts and historical brews, are a testament to the event’s inclusive and extensive nature.
