In 2026, Engeltjes Pis won New Zealand’s first ever gold medal at the World Beer Cup®, the world’s largest and most prestigious international beer competition. It won the American-Style Sour or Wood + Barrel-Aged Sour Beer category. The competition, which drew 8,166 entries from 1,644 breweries across 50 countries, is known as “the Olympics of beer”. Only three medals are awarded in each category: one gold, one silver and one bronze. New Zealand breweries have won just eight World Beer Cup medals in the competition’s 30-year history. Six of those belong to Garage Project, including medals for Engeltjes Pis in 2024 and Chance, Luck & Magic in 2023, 2024 and 2026. The name comes from a Flemish saying which describes the experience of incredible flavours as ‘like an angel pissed on my tongue’. Must be at least 18 years old & over to purchase.
