PHOENIX – An East Valley brewery claimed two medals at the prestigious 2019 U.S. Open Beer Championships.
O.H.S.O. Brewery in Gilbert won a silver medal in the “non whiskey barrel aged beer” category for its Knights of Windsor and a bronze medal in “barrel-aged strong stout/porter specialty” for its Te Quiero.
Those were the only medal-winning beers from Arizona at this year’s competition.
O.H.S.O., which has four Valley locations, opened its downtown Gilbert restaurant/brewery in April 2018.
