Here are the results from this weekend's competition at the Killarney Beer Festival. 165 Irish beers and ciders were judged at this. I think I've corrected any mistakes on the official website. If I'm wrong on anything, let me know. Big congrats to Kellie and her team for the herculean effort that went into this.
