And we're done!
79 votes in; 85 different beers received at least one preference.
The 2014 Beer of the Year walked away with it by a huge margin, and that is:
[b:3fnlzp3o]Of Foam And Fury[/b:3fnlzp3o] by Galway Bay Brewery
The two runners up were very close to each other, but both streets ahead of the rest of the pack. And they are:
First runner-up: [b:3fnlzp3o]Amber Ella[/b:3fnlzp3o] by Eight Degrees Brewing
Second runner-up: [b:3fnlzp3o]Metalman Pale Ale[/b:3fnlzp3o] by Metalman Brewing
Thanks to everyone who voted. I doubt there'll be too many shocked faces with that result, though only one voter had all three in that order.
I propose doing the draw for the DrinkStore voucher next weekend at the Alltech gig, when there are a few people around as witnesses, so sit tight.
And trophies and presentations and whatever will follow in due course.
Congrats to the winners!
