We've reached the final of regional business and food and drink awards
Posted by Tracey Baty on
The team at Wold Top is celebrating two of our beers being shortlisted in the Deliciously Yorkshire Taste Awards and reaching the final of the York Press Business Awards.
Our award-winning low-alcohol beer, Intuition, has been shortlisted for the Best Beer award, and Scarborough Fair has reached the final in the Best Sustainable Product category in what is referred to as the largest and most respected food and drink awards programme in the region. We're also over the moon to have been shortlisted for the Sustainable Award at the York Press Business iQ Awards.
Brewery director, Alex Balchin, said: “We’re proud of our sustainable farming and brewing practices and are delighted that these have been recognised with places in the final of two separate competitions. It’s also good to see our award-winning low alcohol beer winning through the blind tasting round to reach the Best Beer final.”
Head Judge of the Deliciously Yorkshire awards, BBC Broadcaster and artisan food expert Nigel Barden said: “Each year, Yorkshire food and drink businesses out-do themselves with the quality of entries and it was no exception in our 20th year of holding these awards. It’s a real pleasure to see Yorkshire businesses continuing to innovate and create the most delicious products.”
The winners of the Deliciously Yorkshire awards will be announced at a dinner at the Pavilions of Harrogate on Wednesday, 6th November, when Mr Barden and chef consultant, Steph Moon will host an evening of champagne, local food and celebration. The York Press awards ceremony takes place on York Racecourse on November 29th.
Wish us luck!
