There were 25 experts from scientific and research institutes, the brewing industry and mass media in the meeting.
132 beers of 34 brewing companies have been registered for ROSGLAVPIVO. Unfortunately, due to the breakdown in work schedules during holidays, only 95 beers have been received within the time limits set.
For five hours together, the Expert Jury, divided into two mixed teams – Russian and foreign experts, tasted beers. The beer category No3 – Light/Lager became the most popular category. The first team tasted all beers and selected the best 7 samples that were given to the second team for the taste estimation.

After tasting procedure there was a banquet for the Expert Jury. The key question, interesting for guests: Were there worthy beers?
Yes, moreover, some beers could be highly awarded within the competition “European Beer Star”.
