World Beer Awards 2026: Japan Takes 130 Medals and 7 World’s Best Titles — Complete Winners List
The World Beer Awards 2026 (WBA), announced on August 11-12, 2026, brought 130 medals to Japan — 55 Gold (including 49 Country Winners), 47 Silver, and 28 Bronze[1]. On top of that, Japanese beers claimed the World’s Best title in 7 style categories, with Swan Lake Beer winning two of them outright[2].
This article covers the complete list of all 130 medals across 46 breweries, the details of the 7 World’s Best titles, the top-performing breweries led by Daisen G Beer’s 7 medals, and how these results compare with Japan’s 12 medals at the World Beer Cup 2026. All records are also searchable in our free Beer Awards Database (11 competitions, 48,089 records).
🍺 What you’ll find in this article
- Complete list of all 130 Japanese medals at World Beer Awards 2026 (55G / 47S / 28B)
- Details of the 7 World’s Best style titles (Swan Lake’s double crown, Derailleur’s WC IPA, and more)
- Top Japanese breweries ranking — Daisen G Beer leads with 7 medals
- How the WBA’s Country Winner → World’s Best system works, and how it differs from the World Beer Cup
🍺 If you try just one
Swan Lake Beer “Amber Swan Ale” (World’s Best Amber) — brewed at the foot of the Gozu mountains in Agano, Niigata. Swan Lake also took World’s Best Porter, making it the only double World’s Best winner from Japan this year. Both are year-round beers you can actually buy from the brewery’s online shop and Japanese bottle shops — a world champion you can taste for yourself.
130 medals puts Japan 5th out of 62 countries — behind Germany (228), France (210), China (173) and Belgium (137)! And 7 World’s Best titles, spanning everything from traditional lagers and pale ales to flavoured beers!
If Japan’s 12 medals at the World Beer Cup in April made you wonder how 130 is possible here, that’s the design of the competition, not a skill gap. The WBA awards medals country by country before crowning a single World’s Best per style — so read the “49 Country Winners” and “7 World’s Best” numbers separately. That’s where the real story is.
🏅 What is the World Beer Awards? (2026 at a glance)
| Item | Details |
|---|---|
| Competition | World Beer Awards 2026 (WBA) |
| Organizer | Paragraph Publishing (UK) — part of The World Drinks Awards series |
| Results announced | August 11-12, 2026, at Sprowston Manor Hotel, Norwich, UK[1] |
| Judging system | Beers are judged by style within each country first — the best gets Country Winner (plus Gold/Silver/Bronze medals). Country Winners then compete for the World’s Best title in each style[2] |
| Categories | 11 groups, 107 styles in the tasting competition (a separate bottle/can design competition is not covered here) |
| 2026 medals | 1,795 tasting medals worldwide — Gold 620 (incl. 569 Country Winners), Silver 656, Bronze 519 — across 62 countries[1] |
The WBA has run since 2007 and is built on a “win your country first, then fight for the world” structure. That makes it fundamentally different from the World Beer Cup (a single worldwide blind judging with only 353 medals total in 2026) — medal counts between the two competitions are not directly comparable.
📊 Japan’s 130 medals — summary
| Category Group | Gold | Silver | Bronze | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lager | 12 | 11 | 8 | 31 |
| Pale Beer | 11 | 10 | 3 | 24 |

| IPA | 6 | 6 | 5 | 17 |
| Wheat Beer | 5 | 6 | 5 | 16 |
| Speciality Beer | 5 | 4 | 1 | 10 |
| Stout & Porter | 4 | 2 | 2 | 8 |
| Dark Beer | 3 | 0 | 0 | 3 |
| Mid-Strength | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 |
| No & Low Alcohol | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 |
| Japan total | 55 | 47 | 28 | 130 |
Lager leads with 31 medals, followed by Pale Beer (24), Flavoured Beer (19), IPA (17) and Wheat Beer (16) — a spread that runs from classic German-style lagers to spice- and fruit-forward brews.
🌏 Japan’s 7 World’s Best titles
These beers beat the Country Winners of every other nation to take the world title in their style[2].
🥇 Swan Lake Beer (Niigata) — World’s Best Amber + World’s Best Porter
“Amber Swan Ale” won the Amber (Incl. Irish Reds) title and “Porter” won World’s Best Porter. A double world title for the veteran brewery from Agano, Niigata — the biggest single result for Japan this year, and both beers are regular year-round releases.
🥇 Derailleur Brew Works “WC IPA” — World’s Best American Style IPA
The Osaka brewery (operated by Cyclo Inc., based in the Nishinari district) took the world title in the fiercely contested American Style IPA category with its West Coast IPA. Derailleur finished with 5 medals in total, including Country Winners for its “SHIN” Altbier and “Hazy IPA”.
🥇 Yokosuka Beer “Red Brick Brewery” — World’s Best Bitter Over 5.5%
The Kanagawa brewery beat the British at their own game, taking the world title in the stronger Bitter category.
🥇 U.B.P Brewery “Urawa City Ale” — World’s Best Bitter Up To 4.5%
The Urawa, Saitama brewery won the sessionable Bitter category. U.B.P also took Country Winners for “Iroha” (Belgian Style Witbier) and “Kickoff Pils” (Classic Pilsener) — all three of its medals were Country Winners.
🥇 Huîtrière “Mimosa Saison” — World’s Best Brut Beers
A world title in the champagne-dry Brut Beers category for one of Japan’s newer names.
🥇 Yatsugatake Brewery “Touchdown Mizudashi Coffee Lager” — World’s Best Flavoured Chocolate & Coffee
The cold-brew coffee lager from Yatsugatake Brewery (Moeginomura, Kiyosato, Yamanashi) took the Chocolate & Coffee world title. Its “Touchdown Pilsner” also won a Gold.
🥇 All 55 Gold medals (including 49 Country Winners)
“Country Winner” marks the highest-rated beer of that style in Japan; “Gold” is the gold-medal tier below it.

Daisen G Beer (Kumezakura Brewery, Houki, Tottori) leads with 7 medals, including four Golds spanning kellerbier, experimental beer and barrel-worthy stouts. Sankt Gallen (Kanagawa) and Rokko Beer (Hyogo) follow with 6 each, while Derailleur, Fujizakura Heights Beer, Kirishima Beer, Groundtap Brewery and Spring Valley Brewery all took 5. Spring Valley is notable for winning at both the World Beer Cup (Gold + Silver) and the WBA in 2026.
Nara Brewing’s “Integral” took the Belgian Style Strong Country Winner — that’s their third international win of 2026 after the double gold at the World Beer Cup! And Hitachino Nest “Non Ale” winning the no-alcohol Pale category really is a sign of the times, woof!
🔍 130 vs 12 — how to read WBA against the World Beer Cup
In 2026 Japan won 12 medals at the World Beer Cup (April, Philadelphia) and 130 at the WBA. The gap reflects competition design, not ability.
| World Beer Cup 2026 | World Beer Awards 2026 | |
|---|---|---|
| Award system | Single worldwide judging; one G/S/B per category | Country Winner + G/S/B per country, then one World’s Best per style |
| Total medals | 353 (118 categories) | 1,795 tasting medals (107 styles × countries) |
| Japan | 12 medals (5 Gold) | 130 medals (55 Gold, 7 World’s Best) |
| What it measures | Head-to-head against the world’s best | Depth of the domestic field + style world titles (World’s Best) |
The number to compare internationally is the 7 World’s Best titles — those are direct wins over every other country’s Country Winner, carrying weight comparable to a World Beer Cup gold.

❓ FAQ
Q1. What is a “Country Winner” at the World Beer Awards?
It’s the title given to the highest-rated beer of each style within each country — the top tier of the gold medals. Only Country Winners advance to the World’s Best judging. Japan took 49 Country Winners in 2026, and 7 of them went on to win the world title.
Q2. Aren’t 130 medals too many?
The WBA awards medals per country, so its totals run far higher than the World Beer Cup’s (1,795 tasting medals worldwide in 2026 versus 353). The 130 shows the depth of Japan’s field; the numbers that measure world-level success are the 7 World’s Best titles and 49 Country Winners.
Q3. Can I buy the winning beers?
Swan Lake Beer, Daisen G Beer, Sankt Gallen, Fujizakura Heights Beer and Hitachino Nest sell year-round through their official online shops and Japanese bottle shops (some ship internationally via distributors). Smaller breweries’ winners may be taproom-only — check each brewery’s official SNS for availability.
Q4. Does this include the design awards?
No. This article and our awards database cover the tasting competition only; the WBA’s separate bottle/can design competition is out of scope.
