The Best of Craft Beer Awards (BOCBA) 2025 took place last weekend in Redmond, Oregon. Fifty international judges determined the winners of the total of 135 gold, silver and bronze medals in the competition. Over 1,200 entries were judged in arriving at the medal recipients. As you might expect, due to the location of the event, most of the entries and award winners were from the West Coast states of Washington, Oregon and California. They accounted for a total 90 medals. Indiana breweries received a total of 7 medals, which was almost double that of any other state, not on the West Coast! The complete list of medalists can be found here.
The winners and the categories in which they won are as follows:
Bier Brewery – Dark Lagers – Night Lager – Gold
Bier Brewery – Flavored Beers – Pumpkin Ale – Bronze
Flix Brewhouse – Classic and Specialty Saisons & Farmhouse Beers – Flix Farmhouse – Gold
Flix Brewhouse – Fruit & Field Beers – Luna Rosa – Gold
Moontown Brewing – German & American Wheat Beers – Hefczkowski – Bronze
Moontown Brewing – Amber Lagers – Follow the Lederhosen – Bronze

Congrats to the winning breweries!
