  • The Golden Pints: Beer Awards 2010

The 2009 Golden Pint Awards were a success so we have decided we’d have some fun with them again this year. It couldn’t be simpler, just fill in your answers to the categories below. You can do this in the comments on someone’s blog post, write them in your own blog or email them to Mark or me and we’ll post them for you. Do it anytime between now and New Year’s Eve.

Feel free to do a runner-up and a winner for each category (or some honourable mentions) and link to blog posts if you’ve written about winners before. For the open category you can choose whatever you want; it could be bargain of the year, night out of the year, barman of the year, cooking lager of the year, best beer photo, worst beer, anything you want. If there are any categories that you don’t want to give a winner for then just skip it.
