Fort Worth brewers bring home the hardware
This shocked the hell out of me—I thought the Covey Restaurant and Brewery was just home to a really pricey menu. Turns out they are also home to one highly regarded Vienna-style lager.
The Covey’s Vienna Lager beat 24 other entries to win the gold medal at the Brewers Association World Beer Cup in San Diego last week. Rahr Brewing won a bronze medal for its Bucking Bock in the German-Style Heller Bock/Maibock category which featured 31 entries overall.
Although the idea of a Beer Olympics sounds made up, it’s true. The Brewers’ Association created the World Beer Cup in 1996 to celebrate the art and science of brewing by recognizing outstanding achievement. It’s a rough job, but someone has to do it.
Congratulations to the winners!
UPDATE: Barry Schlachter had more on the Covey this morning.
