Tonight's the Night - Canadian Brewing Awards to be Announced

Tonight's the night where brewers and brewery representatives from all over Canada fly into Toronto to celebrate and recognize the winners of the 7th Annual Canadian Brewing Awards (hosted and operated by TAPS: Canada's Beer Magazine).

Back in August, breweries from coast-to-coast submitted their product for judging, choosing from 25 categories to enter. 18 BJCP judges had the daunting task of tasting and scoring over 280 beers - from the smallest of breweries to the largest national ones.

Last year we held a packed house at The Richmond, where Mill Street Brewery walked away with their second consecutive Canadian Brewery of the Year award and Garrison Brewing Co. also captured their second consecutive Beer of the Year award for their Imperial Pale Ale. Will they extend their streak to three? How will be the big winners tonight?

Check back tonight in between 7:30pm and 8:00pm for all the results.
