Three Brewlando Beers Win at Best Florida Beer Oktoberfest Competition

Guests can still taste both gold medal winners, the silver medal winner, and the full eight-beer Rundreise lineup through October 4.

Three beers from Brewlando's Rundreise Oktoberfest lineup took home medals at the 2026 Best Florida Beer Oktoberfest Pro competition, two golds and one silver, out of 203 judged entries across 16 medal groups.

Shoemaker Altbier won gold in the Hybrid – Altbier/Keller/Zwickle category. Rauchator Rauchbier took gold in the Smoke Beer category. Kronenwirt Vienna Lager earned silver in the Vienna-Style Lager category. The results also placed Brewlando in a tie for second in the competition's Heavy Medal brewer standings.

We created Rundreise to give our brewing team the chance to celebrate classic German beer styles, and earning three medals shows just how much care went into every beer,” said Shara Pathak, founder and owner of Brewlando. “The best part is that guests still have time to taste the winners, and all eight beers, before our Oktoberfest celebration wraps up.
