Finest Beer Selection 2026

Best Beers of the Year 2026 – Finest Beer Selection

This year once again, the Finest Beer Selection brings us news that fills us with pride: Guerrilla® and Pizzapils® have been included in the Finest Beer 2026 selection.

Guerrilla® continues its streak, securing its place at the top of the international selection year after year. It is a result that reflects the consistency of our work with hopping and our determination to never stop improving.

Pizzapils® returns to the podium and confirms the work we do at the Farm with our hops: we are managing to bring out the very best in terms of aroma and character.

What is the Finest Beer Selection? It is an authoritative beer guide inspired by the major wine rating systems (think Parker or Wine Spectator). The Finest Beer Selection was created to provide a reliable point of reference for breweries, industry professionals, and beer enthusiasts.

The competition is organized by two leading institutions in the beer world: Doemens, the only school in the world authorized to award the international Biersommelier qualification, and Meininger Verlag, the German publishing group specializing in the beverage industry.

Its evaluation method is what makes it unique: beers are tasted blind by an international panel of 50 experts, who create a detailed sensory profile for each one. Every beer is scored on a scale from 1 to 100, and only those that achieve more than 90 points are included in the exclusive selection of the year.

Being here once again, and for the fourth time with Guerrilla®, confirms that the path we have chosen is the right one.
