Beer - Beverage Testing Institute

From massive names like Heineken, MillerCoors and Boston Beer Co. to the bootstrap-pulling craft breweries like Urban Chestnut, Full Sail, and Burleigh, we broadcast the flavor and quality that sets your brand apart. To this day BevTest is the fairest, most consistent and professional beer competition out there for beer – just look at our data.

"BevTest is all about being objective and professional. I send our beers to them because I believe I get an honest and true comparison of how they compare to world-class products in their category."

- Kirby Nelson, Capital Brewery

"The consistency and broad consumer reach of (BevTest’s) ratings and reviews really solidified the quality message of our artisan brand and helped us build a well-distributed and highly regarded specialty portfolio of beers."

- Laurent-Xavier Gilbert, La Brasserie Unibroue

"In the craft beer world of limited marketing budgets, it's great to have a tool like (BevTest) results. They have been a valuable resource for us."

- Tom Allen, North Coast Brewing Co.

For the better part of the last decade, I've had the honor of being a beer panelist for the Beverage Testing Institute here in Chicago. Their methodologies and tasting procedures are refined and professional, and I'm lucky to get to have these in-depth discussions with the BevTest team and my industry peers.

- Shana Solarte, John I. Haas
