Field Day Brewing Takes Home a Silver Medal at the 2025 Great American Beer Festival® Competition

Field Day Brewing is recognized as one of the best brews in the nation at the country’s largest professional beer competition

North Liberty  — Field Day Brewing earned a silver medal at the 2025 Great American Beer Festival (GABF) competition, hosted and presented by the Brewers Association®. 

In the 2025 competition, beers and ciders spanning 108 beer categories and six cider categories were judged by panels of professional judges.  Winning a coveted Great American Beer Festival competition medal signifies global recognition for brewing excellence, acknowledging the quality and style accuracy of the beer or cider.

Field Day Brewing was recognized in the American Fruit Beer category for its Lime Featherweight, an American lager brewed with over 80 pounds of fresh limes in each batch. Field Day Brewing is a 15-barrel brewpub located in North Liberty, Iowa, that prides itself in its Czech and German lagers.

“Having just celebrated our two-year anniversary in August, bringing home national recognition at the most prestigious and competitive beer competition in the country was a huge win for us,” said Alec Travis, Owner/Director of Brewing Operations at Field Day. “Unfortunately, we were the only Iowa brewery to secure any medals this year, which is out of the ordinary. Nonetheless, we were honored to help put Iowa on the map for world class beer in 2025 like many have before us. This wasn’t just a win for Field Day Brewing and Lime Featherweight; it was a win for the brewing industry in Iowa as a whole.”

This year’s results revealed 273 breweries and cideries earned 347 medals out of over 8,500 entries. The Great American Beer Festival panel of judges evaluated noteworthy brews and ciders across 108 beer categories, six cider categories, and the Pro-Am and Collaboration competitions.  

“The Great American Beer Festival competition is the ultimate proving ground, recognizing the absolute best in innovation and craftsmanship from brewers all over the country. Earning a medal here, whether it’s gold, silver, or bronze, is an incredible, career-defining achievement that signifies a brew’s excellence against the most rigorous standards in the industry,” remarked Chris Williams, competition director for the Brewers Association. “The Brewers Association proudly celebrates the accomplishments of every single medal winner.”

The awards ceremony, live-streamed on The Brewing Network on Saturday, October 11, 2025, was held in the festival hall at the Colorado Convention Center as part of the Great American Beer Festival before Saturday’s session.
