European Beer Star on Tour - Travel Blog
The European Beer Star stands for diversity and uniqueness of the beers. The beer styles in the competition are of European origin. There are plenty of imitations of individual beer styles around the world. However, in order to understand the intentions of the brewers in the countries of origin as well as the aroma and taste components of the beer styles, there is no getting around the experience on site.
The European Beer Star travel blog is intended to honor the worldwide efforts of brewers to spread beer culture. The Global Family comes together - all over the world! Join us on a journey through the beers of the world and learn more about local beer habits and their influence on the European Beer Star.
Kraft Roku und Sympozjum Piwowarów
The first entry of the travel blog takes us to the neighboring country of Germany - to Poland. To be more precise: to Krakow.
The national Kraft Roku tasting competition took place there for the 16th time from December 10 to 13, 2023. With 810 beers from 121 Polish breweries, Kraft Roku is the largest beer tasting competition in Poland and is an excellent representation of the Polish beer landscape. The tasting is organized by Browamator (www.browamator.pl). The tasting was immediately followed by two days of technical presentations at the Sympozjum Piwowarów. The symposium was organized by the Polskie Stowarzyszenie Browarów Rzemieślniczych Learn more
Finding the best Beers in Bella Italia
The next stop on our travel blog takes us to the land of savoury, Italy. An exceptionally creative beer scene has developed there over the past 15 years. Not only is the variety of breweries remarkable, but the quality of the beers can also compete with the best breweries in the world, as can be seen from the results of past European Beer Star tastings. (you can find the winners' lists of the past years here).
Italy has always been known for its outstanding wine quality. As in Europe as a whole, consumer behaviour is also changing in Italy.
