Dutch Beer Challenge 2018
De Dutch Beer Challenge, de eerste professionele bierwedstrijd in Nederland, werd in 2014 opgericht als antwoord op de groeiende interesse in de biercultuur. De eerste editie van de Dutch Beer Challenge vond in 2015 plaats in Rotterdam. Sindsdien groeide de wedstrijd uit tot één van de belangrijkste bierevenementen. Mitra is als dè bierspecialist van Nederland sinds het begin hoofdsponsor van dit evenement.
