Fighting it out in the Finals Fatal Four-Way for this year, 2025, we had returning champion Liquid Noise Brewing Company vs. Collusion Tap Works vs. former champion Allusion Brewing Company vs. Acclamation Brewing.

Thank You

Thank you to everyone who voted. I will go into a much bigger thank you on the Results Page, as well as looking for feedback, suggestions for next year (and all other years going forward), and in general people’s thoughts, ideas, and if they enjoyed this year’s tournament or not. I hope everyone did. I appreciate all the time and effort everyone spent on voting and participating in the tournament, and I can only hope everyone enjoyed it. This year’s edition was plagued with a few technical issues on our website, on social media, and all kinds of things, but I think we made it through, just going an extra week long due to the issues. But ending on WrestleMania Night 2, on Easter, and on 4:20 day, kind of made up for it.

I want to congratulate all of the finalists – Allusion Brewing Company (Apollo Conference winner), Collusion Tap Works (Zeus Conference Winner), Liquid Noise Brewing Company (Cascade Conference Winner), and Acclamation Brewing (Liberty Conference Winner). All four breweries did a fantastic job throughout the tournament, and are fantastic breweries period. So if you can, go out and support these great places and people!

There was a total of 256 breweries competing this year, from 13 states and the District of Columbia.  So this was certainly a hard fought win, especially since it’s their second win, for Allusion Brewing Company. Congrats to them (again)!

Just before you’re about to hit play on that cassette tape of “We Are The Champions” we have one final round to go! Its the Finals Fatal Four – Way! Each of the Conference Champions will be facing off in a fatal four way to determine who is the true Battle of the Breweries (2025) Champion! And this year’s a doozy! We have two returning champions, including the Defending champion – Liquid Noise Brewing Company, as well as two first time finalists. Scroll down to the VOTE section to vote.

The Battle of the Breweries: 2025 – Championship Finals Fatal Four Way

Conference Champions

Let’s take a look at the four conference champions:

Apollo Conference

The winner, defeating Boneshire Brew Works in the Conference Championship, of the Apollo Conference is…………… Allusion Brewing Company! A former Battle of the Breweries Champion!

Cascade Conference

The winner, defeating Shy Bear Brewing – and defending their championship from 2024 – of the Cascade Conference is Liquid Noise Brewing Company!

Liberty Conference

The winner of the Liberty Conference, and making their first Finals appearance, having defeated Wolf Brewing, is Acclamation Brewing!

Zeus Conference

The winner of the Zeus Conference, defeating Dancing Gnome Brewing to advance to their first finals is Collusion Tap Works!

Finals Fatal Four Way

Much like a wrestling fatal four way match, you have four determined, grizzled, hard nosed, tough as nails; competitors facing off to determine the one true winner and champion! We take the winner of each of the conferences and pit them against each other in a four way match. (Think of WrestleMania 2000 with The Rock vs. HHH vs. Big Show vs. Mick Foley!) You can only vote for one brewery, and after two weeks – ending on 4:20, on WrestleMania XLI Night Two, ending on Easter Sunday, on Sunday April 20th, 2025; the brewery with the most votes will be the Battle of the Breweries Champion! You can vote daily for your favorite brewery. So we fully recommend 1) that you bookmark this page so you can come back to it each day, and 2) that you share this page to all of your social media platforms to help your favorite brewery out!

VOTE

(Voting has ended.)

Tournament Guidelines

We fully encourage everyone to have as much fun as possible with this tournament! Share and comment and talk about the breweries facing off. Upset your favorite brewery isn’t in the tournament? Sorry! It means one of us probably haven’t been there, or they just barely missed our cut when deciding the 256 breweries to include! Social media is a fantastic tool for sharing your brewery or your favorite brewery’s voting page. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, BlueSky, Mastodon, Tumblr, LinkTree, umm…. MySpace? LinkedIn? Pinterest? What other social medias do you cool young kids use? Whichever it is, feel free to share and bolster and brag about how your brewery is doing or encourage others to vote for your favorite brewery!

Please do keep it all in fun though. This isn’t meant to belittle or demean breweries or to create real animosity. Its a fun light hearted competition in the spirit of the NCAA March Madness basketball tournament. So with that in mind please enjoy it!

The finals round will be a two week event, unlike the previous rounds (with the exception of the one round due to technical difficulties), which were one week rounds.

We are here! We are just about to the end. That means its the Conference Finals! The winners of these match-ups will meet up in the Finals Fatal Four-Way and be declared the 2025 Champion! There is just eight breweries left, with four match-ups (one for each conference), and the winners moving on. We have two returning champions in the mix (Allusion Brewing Company and Liquid Noise Brewing Company). All eight breweries that remain are also Pennsylvania breweries too! (Go PA Beer!) So check below to vote, and help decide who moves on to the finals! (Instead of doing an individual page for each conference, I have combined all of the voting into one page.)

The 2025 Battle of the Breweries Conference Finals

Apollo Conference

We have two breweries left and its crunch time for the Apollo Conference!

The match-up is between 21. Boneshire Brew Works vs. 30. Allusion Brewing Company.

Cascade Conference

In a back to back for the conferences, we have a former champion reaching the finals. (Allusion Brewing in the Apollo Conference.) Liquid Noise Brewing Company is the returning champion. Can they move on to the finals to defend their championship?

The match-up is between 25. Shy Bear Brewing and 26. Liquid Noise Brewing Company.

Liberty Conference

The third conference has a tough match-up, and is the second Pittsburgh vs. Harrisburg area brewery matchup (the first being Allusion – Pittsburgh Area vs. Boneshire – Harrisburg area). In this one we have Acclamation Brewing defending Pittsburgh area vs. Wolf Brewing defending the Harrisburg area.

The match-up is between 10. Wolf Brewing vs. 17. Acclamation Brewing.

Zeus Conference

The final conference is seeing yet another Pittsburgh area brewery going head to head with a Central PA area brewery. We have Dancing Gnome Brewing of Pittsburgh vs. Collusion Tap Works of York and Lititz.

The match-up is between 2. Dancing Gnome Brewing vs. 17. Collusion Tap Works.

Voting Rules

Voting is straight forward and simple. There are four conferences: APOLLO, CASCADE, LIBERTY, and ZEUS. (All named after different hop varietals.) Each week, from Monday through Sunday, there will be a voting page for each of the conference. Click on the voting page, open it up, and it will have a pop-down survey poll. Starting with the Round of 64, all the way down to the finals of each conference, followed by a Fatal Four Way that will have the winner of each conference fighting for the grand champion!

You can vote daily for each of the conferences, so you can make up to 4 votes (one per conference) per day. Each round will be one week, except for the Finals which will be two weeks. The rounds are as follows: Round of 64, Round of 32, Round of 16, Round of 8, Round of 4, Conference Finals (Round of 2), and the Finals Fatal Four-Way (Winner of each Conference in a four-way match). So for the first week, there will be 32 matches in the conference, then in the second week there will be 16 matches, then 8 matches, then 4 matches, then the last two rounds are just 1 match each.

For the Conference Finals I might just make it 1 voting page rather than 4 distinct voting pages. It all depends on what will be easier for the blog’s coding and all that back house stuff.

Voting for this round will end on Sunday April 6th.

VOTE

Best in Beer Winners – 2025

First, you can see the full list of entries and winners directly from the Farm Show’s site here: 2025 PA Farm Show – Department 34 Beer Contest. The PDF page is a bit confusing and shows all entries, how many points they received, if they are PA Preferred, and if they won a medal. No mention of categories or anything.

I will help you out here and break down the categories (best that I can) and show who won what place, and will list if it’s PA Preferred (more on what that is afterwards).

For a full list of all Farm Show competitions, and winners, you can view their Results page here: 109th Annual Farm Show Results.

The 2024 Battle of the Breweries Champion Is… Liquid Noise Brewing Company!

The NEW Battle of the Breweries Champion Is…

Liquid Noise Brewing Company

The brand new, undisputed, Battle of the Breweries Champion is….. Liquid Noise Brewing Company! Joining our esteemed list of previous winners (Allusion Brewing Company, Von C Brewing Company, and Isle of Que Brewing), Liquid Noise Brewing Company is the newest champion; defeating Allusion Brewing Company, Shy Bear Brewing, and Robin Hood Brewing Company in a hard fought battle in the Finals Fatal Four-Way. They outlasted 139 other breweries to be the sole champion of this year’s tournament.

The Battle of the Breweries ran from the end of February to middle of April, with several rounds. Liquid Noise Brewing Company put up an amazing performance the whole way through (you can view how they did in the results pages for each round). In the finals they bested last year’s champion – Allusion Brewing Company as well as Shy Bear Brewing and Robin Hood Brewing Company. They garnered 1085 votes for a 49.2% of the vote. In second place was Allusion Brewing Company with 903 votes (41%) and in third was Shy Bear Brewing with 113 votes and Robin Hood Brewing Company came in fourth with 104 votes.

Liquid Noise Brewing Company made it to the Finals Fatal Four-Way by winning the Bravo Conference. In this tournament there were breweries from Pennsylvania, Maryland, Ohio, Delaware, D.C, New York, New Jersey, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, and Arizona.

Liquid Noise Brewing Company

Liquid Noise Brewing Company is located in Marysville, Pennsylvania. They recently re-opened with new management, new brewers, and new beers. An advanced kitchen and menu, as well as wonderful staff, there is no doubt as to why they won the tournament. Take a moment to stop out sometime and check out why they are THE 2024 BATTLE OF THE BREWERIES CHAMPIONS!

I will be doing a full break-down article on the results of the round tomorrow, like I have done for the other rounds and each previous tournament. But for quick results, you can see the image below:

As we reported back in July of 2023 – Allusion Brewing Expanding into Allison Park – North Hills – Allusion Brewing Company is growing and expanding, adding a second location in the North Hills. We were told about this while we were there for their Great Appreciation Party.

Their announcement on Facebook reads:

As we near the end of 2023, we are thankful for all of the support from our local community of Vandergrift. We look forward to another great year in this amazing historic town!

We have big plans for 2024!

Construction has been going strong for a couple months now, and early in 2024, we are going to open our second location in the North Hills. McCandless Township, Duncan Manor in Allison Park to be exact!

With the addition of a second location, we are making a few adjustments to our hours of operation, which will apply to both locations:

Tuesday and Wednesday, 3 pm -10 pm
Thursday, 12 pm – 10 pm
Friday and Saturday, 12 pm – 11 pm
Sunday, 12pm – 6pm

*Kitchen closes 1 hour before taproom*

These hours will go into effect in Vandergrift starting January 2nd

Yes, me too.  But we also make some leftovers into other things.  I feel the Bubba montage about shrimp from Forrest Gump coming on.

I remember years past my Grandma would serve Turkey, gravy and waffles.   And later on, Turkey sandwiches, turkey salad, an entire thanksgiving meal casserole, hot turkey sandwiches, etc.  We made turkey chowder with the leftovers this year.  But let’s not forget leftover stuffing, I mean if there is such a thing.  I recently tried stuffing waffles. I am way to impatient and need to buy a stronger waffle maker!

If you are nibbling on the typical roast turkey dinner your go to is going to be an Belgian Dubbel  or Amber/brown ale. Our go to is Baker Street Brown Ale by Allusion Brewing Company (see above picture). (See Amy’s article: We Can’t Always Be a Glutton Right? – Perfect Portions and Allusion Brewing Company). A full bodied beer like the BSB pairs perfectly with the traditional stuffing and gravy.

The other beer we paired it with was Mad Elf by Troeg’s.  Tis the season!  This happens to be the hostess’s favorite beer so we didn’t even think to show up without a case of Mad Elf for her.  This is a Belgium but a strong dark ale. Mad Elf is another way I feel is a great way to kick off the holiday season. (Grandma SueAnn does love her Mad Elf.)

And as for the leftover pie, I am lucky enough to be nibbling on a pumpkin cheese cake.  I paired it with a Veneration of the Dead from Evergrain.  VotD comes in with a 14.2% ABV to knock you on your butt and keep you humble.  VotD is described on Untapped as “For our 7th Anniversary, a rich and luxurious Imperial Stout aged extensively in apple brandy and bourbon barrels and then conditioned on toasted hazelnuts, cocoa nibs, whole vanilla beans and a touch of maple syrup.”  The light and airy pumpkin cheesecake pairs perfectly with this rich and bold stout.  I really wish I wasn’t out of VotD and same with the Brown Street ale.  Both of these will need restocked in our fridge!

Thanksgiving

Ben’s note: Thanksgiving this year a very low key get together, but a wonderful day for all. It was Scarlet’s second Thanksgiving, as she just turned 1 on November 11th. I enjoyed several Troegs Independent Brewing beers throughout the course of the day – Mad Elf, Troegenator, and Blizzard of Hops. As well as a nightcap of the Veneration of the Dead. We had gotten this as a crowler from West Connection Beer Vault in Hummelstown / Hershey a few months ago, and it’s still held up well. Grandma SueAnn hosted us, and it was Amy, myself, Scarlet, as well as my parents, and then friends of Amy and SueAnn’s – Deb and Shawn. We had turkey, mashed potatoes, green bean casserole, baked corn, stuffing, gravy, and more that I’m forgetting this late at night after a few beers. Scarlet very much enjoyed her second Thanksgiving.

Amy has been very busy wrapping up her walk season, and taking care of the end of the walk season work events for her job, as well as doing so much more, that this is the first she’s really gotten a chance to do her weekly column. Sometimes life (especially life with a one year old) gets to be a bit hectic and gets in the way of writing unfortunately, as we certainly were hoping to get time for her to write this past Sunday and a few other days as well, but unfortunately it didn’t work out. But she was able to find time tonight, while Scarlet slept, and I was in a turkey / beer induced coma watching the boring San Fran – Seattle game.

Cheers All!
