Remember the Northampton County Beer Festival at Becket's Park back at the end of May? Well tonight, Thursday 25 July, was the night when we were awarded not one, not two, but three awards from CAMRA Northamptonshire!
At the beer festival, CAMRA Northamptonshire had over 50 judges who took part in sampling 60 beers from the county's brewers. Each one was judged against the CAMRA styles, which resulted in Steam Ale winning the Premium Bitter category and Black Fire winning the Strong Stout category. Each of the category winners then went forward to the Champions Table - and Steam Ale was crowned overall Champion Beer of the Festival.
The judges said that Steam Ale had a "lovely balance of maltiness/sweetness and slight citrus aroma and flavour, great head retention and beautiful colour that matches the style perfectly".
Vice-chair Richard Burgham (pictured right) presented brewery director John with all three certificates this evening. Cheers guys!
