One of the entrants, Steeplechase, named after eleven riders in pyjamas set to jumping fences in 1890, came away a double winner after being awarded a double gold.
The pale ale pours a sumptuous orange hue provided by a base of the finest English barley malts. Builds a level of sweet malt complexity that is well balanced with New Zealand & US hops. Juicy hop aromas of oranges & tropical fruit and citrus orchards lead to a very pleasing bitterness and cleansing finish.
Other gold winners from the brewery were Drovers, a hazy Vermont session IPA. Gunmetal the brewery's take on a black lager. Hopping Spree, a West Coast IPA. Mainland was also a gold winner.
Frisby the local favourite lager picked up a silver and Saint Cloud their Belgian Style Witbier took home bronze.

Head Brewer and Co-Founder Colin Paige said: "As soon as the news came in, I let the whole team know how proud of them I am, with this achievement being no small feat. It's the ultimate validation for us to win at these awards."
The European Beer Challenge™ panel of experienced expert Judges carefully analyse the entries by a process of blind tasting. This extensive process takes into consideration all elements of each Beer including the appearance, flavour profile, aromas, and structure.
This impartial and thorough approach ensures that each Beer is tasted objectively and has the opportunity to compete with the World’s leading Beer brands.
The scores given to each Beer are then collated and the highest-scoring Beers in each category are awarded European Beer Challenge™ Medals in recognition of their excellence. Multiple European Beer Challenge™ Medals may be awarded in a category, provided the required score for Medal is reached.
Round Corner Brewing’s CEO and co-founder, Combie Cryan added: "Winning any medal at these awards is a huge achievement, but to win one double gold, four golds, one silver and one bronze it's just exceptional work."
