Image below shows Allen Henderson of Sulwath Brewery receiving his Champion Beer of Scotland 2017 Bronze winner certificate for Black Galloway from Keith Bruce and Trevor Hayward of the Dumfries and Stewartry CAMRA Sub-Branch.

The presentation was made at a CAMRA "Meet the Brewer" event attended by local licensees and CAMRA members who had the opportunity to taste the award winning ale.

At the Scottish Real Ale Festival in Edinburgh, the winners of all the competition heats held at the various beer festivals throughout 2016 were sampled, in a blind tasting, by a panel of judges to determine the Champion Beer of Scotland 2017. Black Galloway from Sulwath Brewery in Castle Douglas was awarded Bronze.

Chairman of the local CAMRA Sub-Branch Trevor Hayward said: "Allen and his team at Sulwath continue to rack up the awards for their Black Galloway beer. Keep up the good work!"
