Contest Details
We wanted YOU to experience the journey a brewer and brewery take every time they create a beer. Every year, ABF teams up with the Brew Master Program at Olds College to brew a beer for our spring festivals – and this year we want you to take part in the different stages by being part of the BE THE BREWER CONTEST: CHOOSING the style, NAMING the beer, DESIGNING the label, and CREATING the print ad.
There were some fantastic prizes, and the winners of the first 3 stages were invited to partake in the brewing of the beer! See the full Contest Details and the Official Contest Rules.
