General Information

Competition – November 4-5, 2023

Founded in 2010, the Denver International Beer Competition has become one of the largest beer competitions in the nation, with hundreds of beers, meads, and ciders from breweries across the country and around the world. The DIBC is one of just a handful of internationally focused, commercial beer & cider competitions worldwide. Our competition is open to all commercial/ craft brewers, importers, and distributors of beer.

The Denver International Beer Competition is judged double-blind by a panel of highly regarded beverage professionals. Our judging panel consists of seasoned and BJCP Certified Beer Judges. The award process is based on scores. Therefore it is possible to see multiple awards in some categories and fewer awards in categories that contestants underscored.
