The annual U.S. Open Beer Competition returned to its normal schedule at its new event center in Oxford, Ohio following two years of pandemic-related schedule changes. Breweries sent more than 9,000 brews representing over 150 styles of beer to be judged, along with home brews that have medaled at the 2021 American Homebrew Association’s national competition.

Some great Pennsylvania breweries entered the competition and walked away with awards to add to their trophy cases. We couldn’t be more excited to share with you the winners who came from Pennsylvania in the U.S. Open Beer Championship this year.
