The ongoing head-to-head tournament at Old Mill Brew Werks pitting locals beers against each other has come to an end and it looks like Boneyard Beer has won the first-ever March Madness of beer contest.

Boneyard’s RPM IPA took the top honor, beating out all the other local breweries, including the host Old Mill Brew’s new Irreverence IPA.

In all, more than 250 votes were cast during the three-week event. I didn’t make it down there, but I would have cast my vote for Boneyard, as well. That IPA has quickly become one of my favorite beers, and you should try it immediately.
