Sierra Nevada Pale Ale was crowned Champion Keg Ale; and Narwhal Imperial Stout won Champion Strong Beer.
Other winners included Camden Town Brewery, Deschutes Brewery, AB Åbro Bryggeri and Thatchers Cider. UK brewers won four of the 10 categories.
More than 400 people attended the celebration, among them many of the brewers and cider makers from all over the world who had entered the bi-annual competition.
Chair of judges Bill Taylor presented the trophies to the championship winners, as well as bronze, silver and gold medals to 96 winners across the 10 beer and cider categories.
Taylor said: “The International Brewing Awards are about recognising excellence in brewing and cider making and it gives us great pleasure to present this year’s champions with their trophy.
“Close to 1,000 beers and ciders were sent into the competition in Burton-upon-Trent earlier this year, so to be selected as one of just 10 champions is a great accolade and one that today’s winners will surely be able to use to advantage in raising the profile of their beers and ciders.”
The International Brewing Awards 2015 will be held in Burton-upon-Trent in February 2015. Entries will open on 1 August 2014.
