The 7th edition of the USA Beer Ratings is pleased to announce the 2024 winners. Fourchette from Brouwerij Van Steenberge, Belgium becomes the Beer of the Year.

The USA Beer Ratings looks to recognize, reward, and help promote beer brands that have successfully been created to identify with and target a specific beer drinker. For any beer brand to earn its place on a retailer’s shelf or a restaurant’s beer list -  and then vitally stay there - it needs to be marketable and consumer-driven and not just produced in the general hope it can find enough people willing to sell and buy it. That is why the USA Beer Ratings are different. It will single out and shine the spotlight on those beer brands that consumers really want to buy and have a clear market value for trade buyers.

USA Beer Ratings reviews brands by Quality, Value, and Package. You will need to score highly in all three areas of our judging criteria.

The scoring system USA Beer Ratings score is decided on the following judging formula: Q (Quality Score) + Value Score (V) + Package Score (P) = USA Beer Ratings Score. A separate weighted score will be given for each of the three parts of the judging process. The scores will be calculated to give a final score out of 100 from which individual prizes will be awarded. 

Quality Score: will be marked out of 100 
Value Score: will be marked out of 100 
Package Score: will be marked out of 100 

Gold: To receive a Gold medal you need to score 90 or over. Silver: You need to score between 80-89. Bronze: You need to score between 70-79.
