2026 New Mexico Craft Beer Awards

Judging – Aug 3-7, 2026

The New Mexico Craft Beer Awards is the premiere professional craft beer competition run and organized by the New Mexico Brewers Guild to showcase the outstanding quality and variety of New Mexico craft beer and the brewers that make them.

In our inaugural year we have worked with brewers and experienced beer judges across the state to build our beer style categories. Each category contains a variety of BJCP and Great American Beer Festival defined sub-styles to allow participating breweries to best match and categorize their entries.
