Melbourne International Beer Competition Announces 2024 Winners

Thank you to all the brands who came out to compete this year!

The Melbourne International Beer Competition was thrilled with the quality and number of submissions we received in our 9th year. This year’s judging panel included buyers from top retail stores, sommeliers, distributors, and importers from Australia and the greater Asia Pacific Region. As with all of our competitions, we only select trade buyers to be our judges, ensuring that the brands submitted are tasted by the true decision-makers of the beverage industry.
