Noosa brewing company Land & Sea Brewery have won their first gold medal at the 2019 Independent Beer Awards for their Thomas Japanese Rice Lager.
Over a thousand entries were judged by a respected panel of national and international beer professionals to recognise the best beers, and Land & Sea Brewery are celebrating after winning their first gold medal, along with two silvers for their Kolsch and The newly released Socializer and a bronze for their First Point Pale Ale. “The Land & Sea team are absolutely stoked to win our first gold medal, let alone more awards for our beers,” said Tim Crabtree, owner of Land & Sea Brewery.
“As a brand very much cemented into the lifestyle and community of Noosa, it’s really exciting for us to receive such positive industry recognition from some of the worlds best. We’re really looking forward to continuing these great results as our brew team is currently working on some new releases, our overall success really comes down to the work of all our staff and the involvement of our customers.”
In their first year of opening in 2018, Land & Sea Brewery entered just one beer, the Kolsch, and came home with a silver medal from The Indies. Hosted by the Independent Brewers Association, the awards are an important platform to drive consumer awareness of the quality, excellence and importance of Australian independent beer, as well as providing an occasion for independent brewers to celebrate the strength of their contributions to improving Australia’s beer culture.
