2007 Specialty BeersOrchards, Berries, and Barrels Once again, BTI’s specialty beer competition for Ciders, Fruit Beers, Lambics and Unusual Fermentables produced some interesting results. Here’s a category-by-category breakdown. Cider is a worldwide tradition and in the States it started with Colonists settling New England.
