Press Release
JUNEAU, ALASKA February 21, 2007 The Alaskan Big Nugget Barley Wine (2004 vintage) took first place at the Toronado Barley Wine Festival, being held in San Francisco Feb. 17-24. It was an extremely competitive field, with 54 entries, making it at one of the biggest festivals of its kind, according to event organizer David Keene. Only one entry is allowed for each competing brewery. According to Keene, a whopping 90 judges participated this year, with two panels of judges in the first two rounds and one panel in the final round of nine barley wines. I think its a real honor to win at the Toronado, said Darin Jensen, an Alaskan quality assurance analyst and former brewer. Its great that our 2004 Big Nugget did so well, because it proves how well our barley wine ages. Jensen said the Toronado is a unique experience both as a participating brewer and as a festivalgoer. Only barley wines are served and all entries are available on tap. Its held for an entire week at the Toronado Pub, a neighborhood bar in the historic Haight neighborhood, Jensen said. Its a real grass-roots festival. ### For more information or artwork, please contact Communications Manager Amy Woods at 907-780-5866 or awoods@alaskanbeer.com. © Copyright 1997 - 2003 by the Alaskan Brewing Company |
