Here’s a video from Wednesday night’s pint night at TapWerks to announce the fourth annual Beer Championship Series winner.
BCS Finals: Vote for the champion
We started with 64 beers in the fourth annual TapWerks Beer Championship Series. Now, after more than two weeks and thousands of votes, we’re down to two. What’s at stake? The winner will be crowned Oklahoma’s favorite beer for 2011 and get its name engraved on the coveted Golden Taphandle Trophy. Who will win? COOP Native Amber and Redbud Pale Ale are squaring off, and your votes will decide the winner. Voting is now underway and will continue until 5 p.m. Wednesday. At 6 p.m. Wednesday, head on over to TapWerks in Bricktown for a special pint night to celebrate last year’s champion, Marshall McNellie’s Pub Ale, and to hear the announcement of the 2011 BCS champion.

And then there were four. That’s right, beer fans, we’re down to the Final Four of the TapWerks Beer Championship Series. We’re just a couple days away from crowning Oklahoma’s favorite beer for 2011 and awarding the coveted Golden Taphandle Trophy. Which beer will it be? Redbud Pale Ale? COOP Native Amber?
