Brewery Owners, Make Those Awards Count This Season and drive more sales! Award season is just around the corner, and if you’re aiming to snag some of those coveted bronze, silver, or gold medals for your tasty brews, here’s a strategy to maximise the impact and drive sales like never before. Leverage Scarcity and Urgency: Winning an award isn't just a badge of honor—it's a powerful marketing tool. When your brew clinches a title, it’s time to turn up the volume on your promotions. Let your audience know there's a limited time to purchase the award-winning batch. This isn't just any beer; it's a proven champion, and the supply isn’t endless! Shout it Out: Get the word out on all your social media platforms. Announce that fans of your brewery have an exclusive opportunity to taste what the judges deemed the best. Highlight the prestige of the award and what it means about the quality of your brew. Remember, Timing is Everything: Awards are fantastic, but they do come with an expiration date in terms of marketing leverage. Next year, the spotlight will be on the new winners, so act fast. Capitalise on the current buzz to enhance your brand's reputation and boost sales now. Create an Experience: Encourage your customers to not just buy the beer, but to celebrate and share their experience of tasting an award-winning brew on their socials! After all the more shares the more eyes on your beautiful brewery!

After two successful editions, the European Beer Star #FutureAward is entering its third round this year. But what added value do breweries gain by taking part? Stefan Stang, Managing Director, Private Brauereien Bayern e.V.: Participation in the Future Award allows breweries to compare themselves with other industry players. The objective jury provides the breweries with valuable feedback from an "outside perspective" with individual recommendations for sustainable measures in the business, allowing them to improve step by step. After all, #sustainability is a continuous process in which it is important to consistently take one step at a time. The added value is confirmed by the previous #winners. And: there is really no reason not to take part. Participation in the Future Award is free of charge and the effort required to complete the questionnaire is manageable.
