U.S. Open Beer Championships

I missed this earlier this month...

The U.S. Open Beer Championships actually allow national winning homebrewers to compete with commercial brewers across a long list of categories.

Results copied from the U.S. Open Beer Championship website. Also on the website is a list of the most award-winning breweries, led by Deschutes of Portland with 3 golds and 5 silvers.
