Excellent information. I'm ashamed to say I had no idea what was involved to get the IHOTY award.

Wait, when this become a thing again?  THIRSTY said they were resurrecting the award last year but I can't find any records of anyone actually being awarded the designation.  When they didn't hold the THIRSTY Classic at the usual time this year, I just assumed the IHOBTY was being shut down (if it had even really existed last year).

Agree, Lee. It has been rather spotty in recent years. It's hard to get enthused over something that's so sporadic. Another good reason for the Beer Nuts to organize our own sanctioned competition!
