PNG Beer take out global awards

Six Papua New Guinean produced beer have been recognised as some of the top produced beer in the world.

The 6 samples sent to Berlin Germany from Vitis Industries were among samples sent from 12 other countries.

It was the first time for Vitis Industries to enter the Annual Berlin International Beer Competition and they won Gold.

The competition featured more than 100 beer samples from 12 countries around the world.

Vitis Mosin range of premium beers that won medals include the Classic Lager which won Gold, Pilsner which won Silver, and four bronze to Gold Lager, Stout, New Guinea IPA and Classic Strong Lager.

The highlight was being named the “Best Brewery of the Year”.

The Mosins gave credit to the hard working team of the Brewery Department and the style of brewing beer.

Unlike other beer manufacturers, where they use a process called high gravity brewing, Vitis uses batch brewing, where it takes two to three months to produce quality beers.

The award is a stepping stone for the international market.
