2022 Beer Talent Contest

Last May, Maxence Coulomb, a student at the Lycée Hôtelier Bonneveine in Marseille, won first prize in the 17th edition of the Talents Biérologie competition. Next to him on the podium was Colmar’s own Étienne Mangin of the Académie Internationale des Vins, who came in third place in the competition.

Organized by Brasseurs de France, this competition is a unique opportunity for students to acquire solid knowledge about beer. The 8 finalists were judged on 4 tests: sensory analysis, beer and food pairings, cocktails, beer service on draught and in the bottle.
