Bracket introduction
With the NCAA Men’s and Women’s Basketball Tournaments underway, we’re joining the fun of bracket competitions with a face-off of our own.
We asked you to share your favorite breweries in Columbia with us, and now — thanks to you + the help of a random generator — we have the official lineup for our bracket.
Who’s in the running
Going head-to-head in the first round are:
- Columbia Craft Brewing Company and Steel Hands Brewing
- Hazelwood Brewing Company and River Rat Brewery
- Savage Craft Ale Works and Hunter-Gatherer Brewery + Alehouse
- Angry Fish Brewing Co. and Bierkeller Columbia
How it works
Beginning today, we will host several voting rounds within our newsletters and social channels to determine Cola’s best brewery. Who moves on is up to you. Vote for your favorites, and the brewery with more votes moves on. Simple as that. We’ll go until we have a champion, which will be announced later this month in our newsletter. You will be able to vote once per round.
How to participate
Vote for the brewery you’d like to see advance to round two using this poll. You can vote for all four spots or as little as one. Once we count all the votes, we’ll share an updated bracket and new poll in an upcoming newsletter.
