GMBH claims silver medal at the Great American Beer Festival
Lexington, NC — Goose and the Monkey Brewhouse won a silver medal at the 2022 Great American Beer Festival (GABF) competition. Presented by the Brewers Association, GABF is the nation’s largest commercial beer competition and recognizes the most outstanding beers produced in the United States.
Goose and the Monkey Brewhouse was recognized in the American Amber Lager beer-style category for its Seductive Mullet Amber Lager. Seductive Mullet Amber Lager is a freedom loving malt bomb that has been hopped with traditional Bavarian hops. Tasting notes of caramel and toffee give it a dry finish that’s smoother than your trans am’s paint job.
Goose and the Monkey Brewhouse is a 10-barrel microbrewery located in the Historic Depot District in Lexington, NC, that specializes in inventive and delicious craft beer. “I’m honored to have been able to travel to Denver, CO to participate and experience the Great American Beer Festival. I’m excited that we were recognized on a national level for a silver medal.” Eric Gibble, Brewer, Goose and the Monkey Brewhouse.
The top three winners in the competition’s 98 beer categories covering 177 different beer styles were announced October 8 at the Great American Beer Festival awards ceremony held at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver, Colorado.
The 2022 GABF competition winners were selected by an international panel of 235 expert judges from 9,904 entries, plus 94 Collaboration and 35 Pro-Am entries, received from 2,154 U.S. breweries.
“Each year the Great American Beer Festival showcases the best that American brewers have to offer,” said Chris Williams, competition director, Great American Beer Festival. “With more than 9,900 entries, this year’s competition was the most competitive to date. Congratulations to all the winners who truly demonstrated why the U.S. is the best brewing nation in the world.”
