Urban Knaves of Grain (UKG) Club-Only Competitions

Knighted Knave Cup Trophy
  • The "Knighted Knave" Cup Traveling Trophy — Once or twice yearly, the Board designates a project style to brew and all UKG members are welcome to brew the style and be judged by your peers. The best beer of the lot wins the Knighted Knave Cup Trophy and gets to have his/her name added to a plate on this traveling trophy. The winner displays the trophy at their place until the next Knighted Knave Cup competition.

    Note: In the spirit of this being a true traveling cup, winning Knaves are not eligible to enter and win consecutive cup competitions.
