Toto sú najlepšie pivá na svete za rok 2016

Pivo ilustrák degustácia

Cez víkend sa v americkej Filadelfii skončila jedna z najväčších degustačných súťaží na svete. Tohtoročná edícia World Beer Cup hodnotila rekordný počet pív. Do súťaže sa totiž prihlásilo 6 596 pív z 1 907 pivovarov. Že bolo porovnávanie pív reprezentačné, ukazuje aj počet zastúpených krajín. Organizátori ich napočítali celkom 55. Žiaľ, ani jedno pivo nebolo zo Slovenska. Zastúpenie však mali české pivovary. Celkovo poslali do súťaže 16 druhov piva.

Zaujímavosťou je, že ocenenia si okrem amerických či nemeckých pivovarov odvážali aj pivovary z takých štátov ako Litva, Hong Kong, Vietnam či Južná Kórea. Medzi porotcami, ktorí rozhodovali o výsledkoch, nechýbali ani šiesti českí degustátori. My vám prinášame kompletné výsledky súťaže, ktorej cieľom je podporovať pestrosť a nezávislosť remeselného piva nielen v USA.
