Join us and capture the attention of Oregon’s beer-lovingest audience, while supporting the growth of this state’s outstanding craft beer industry. This year marks 10 years of OBAs!

We expect a sold out audience to the main event hall (800+) at Revolution Hall on April 10th, 2025, as industry employees and connoisseur consumers gather for an electric night.

What is the Oregon Beer Awards?

Founded in 2015, the OBA’s bestows medals multiple beer categories and industry categories after 1,200 craft beers from across the state are tasted in a double-blind judging weekend by a panel of 100 diverse, expert judges. Winners are announced during a celebratory ceremony, where an OBA Hall of Fame induction also occurs. Nicknamed the “Academy Awards of Beer” this event is both a raucous reunion of brewers and beer lovers and a notable celebration of outstanding beers and breweries in over 35 categories. Willamette Week produces this event, but the competition is executed by a team of amazing beer stewards. Learn more about the competition, how we judge beers, and the awards show at OregonBeerAwards.com

(Like the Emmys.) Your logo will be on-screen as you present the award, and you’ll have the chance to show off your product or service in a creative way. View categories here.
