Goose Island's Sterling Silver World Beer Cup Results

wbc08_winners.jpgThe results from the biennial World Beer Cup (held this year in classy San Diego) are up. Goose Island represented yet again, earning silver medals for "#12" (English-style summer ale) and Matilda (Belgian- and French-style ale).

Other local winners included Emmett's Ale House in West Dundee, earning a silver medal for their Belgian-Style Dubbel, Rock Bottom Brewery's downtown location (a Gold medal for their Terminal Stout in the American stout category), and Three Floyds (a Gold for their Behemoth in the Imperial or Double Red Ale category and a bronze for Dread Naught IPA).

One other tri-state brewery of note won a medal. Shoreline Brewery in Michigan City, Indiana. Their Beltaine Scottish Ale earned a silver medal for Scottish-style ale.

This means road trips galore this summer.
