Fellow Beer Blogger Mark Dredge has opened up nominations for the 2010 Golden Pints Awards. You can read his original post here. I thought I'd get my thinking cap on and submit my nominations for the GPA 2010. It's been a great year for beers and brewing with some really fine examples of quality beers out there so it was pretty difficult in some categories to get it down to a single winner.
So here goes - the beer monkey's nominations,
Best UK Draught - Fyne Ales Jarl
Best UK Bottled Beer - Kernel Brewery S.C.A.NS IPA / Brewdog Bashah Reserve
Best Overseas Draught - Keesmann Herren Pils
Best Overseas Bottled Beer - Saison Du BUFF
Best Overall Beer - Fyne Ales Jarl

Best Festival - GBBF
Best Independent Retailer - Utobeer
Best Online Retailer - My Brewery Tap / Beer Merchants

Open Category - Most annoying word to describe a beer in 2010 - "Awesome!!!"
My hopes for 2011 - more collaborations, continued innovation, excellent beer.
