As reported in Brewing News, Madison River Brewing Co. in Belgrade, MT, won first place last week at the 6th Annual Coles Barleywine Competition with their Frostbite Barley Wine.  In winning the event, they knocked off some serious competition from the likes of Deschutes Brewery (Mirror Mirror), Moylan’s (Old Blarney), Full Sail (Old Boardhead), Rogue (Old Crustacean), Sam Adams and others. 

Congratulations to Madison River Brewing Co.  We know how great Montana beer is, but it’s always good to get outside recognition.
