Rogue sweeps up at the World Beverage Competition
By Noah Davis • Feb 9th, 2010 • Category: Beer Events
Those impish scamps at Rogue are doing it again — making it hard for anyone else to compete. They took home four gold medals at this year’s 2009-2010 World Beverage Competition. Of the six entries the veteran brewery brought to the table, four sprits from their distillery won a medal: Dead Guy Whiskey, Dark Gin, Hazelnut Rum, and Spruce Rum.
Rogue Spirits was the most decorated distillery at the Word’s Largest Beverage Competition. Judges from six continents tasted brews, beverages, spirits, wines, and even energy drinks in a double-blind test to determine the best refreshments the world over. Rogue beat out competitors including Tangueray and Bacardi using their tried-and-true artisan distilling methods and copper pot stills.
Let’s just hope that Rogue continues to use it’s powers of spirits dominance for good… and that is doesn’t neglect all those awesome, award-winning brews on the shelf, either. Keep ‘em coming, Rogue.
