This year's World Cup of Beer competition was the largest ever. There are a bunch of interesting things on the press release, but Ballast Point, out of San Diego, tied for the most gold medals and got Brewmaster of the Year, Small Category. Firestone Walker got Brewmaster of the Year, Mid-Sized Category.
But, most notable locally, is that Devil's Backbone got Brewmaster of the Year, Small Brewpub Category!!!
