Meet Our 2023 Judges

Current Judges

The alcohol-free category is complex, fast-moving… and different. So here at the World Alcohol-Free Awards we’ve made sure that our judging panel reflects that. We only work with judges who:

  • fully understand the complexities of the alcohol-free world
  • have strong opinions but are open-minded to the unfamiliar
  • care about the category but are rigorous in their assessments
  • And of course, who are great tasters!
