Tempest Brewing Co scoops awards from Barcelona Beer Festival

The brewery from the Scottish Borders was awarded gold for its amber ale, A Face With No Name, and its seasonal apple saison, Saison du Pommes.

Around 500 beers were entered into the inaugural contest, which attracted 30,000 drinkers over the three-day event.

Tempest’s Founder and director, Gavin Meiklejohn, explains: “It’s a fantastic honour to win any award, but we are especially proud to have won these two Gold Awards at Barcelona Beer Challenge.

“We love what we do, and to be recognised for the dedication to quality that goes into our beer is of course a huge achievement. The organisers of both the awards and of Barcelona Beer Festival deserve the highest praise for what was a great weekend spent with highly engaged enthusiasts

“We hope to build on this success throughout the rest of the year, and are excited to see what 2016 holds in store for us here at Tempest.”
