Wild Leap Craft Beverages Earns Five 2022 ADI International Spirits Competition Awards

Wild Leap Brew Co. has won five prestigious ADI awards from Distiller Magazine. Full details are below.


LaGrange, Ga.– Wild Leap Craft Beverages has been internationally recognized with five prestigious 2022 American Distilling Institute International Spirits awards from the renowned Distiller Magazine.

In the Bottled & Blended Category, Wild Leap has earned both Best of Class and Best of Category for their Ready-to-Drink cocktails. Additionally in this category, they won a Double Gold Medal for their Premium Vodka Cocktail Strawberry Mango and two Silver Medals for their handcrafted Wild Leap Vodka and Premium Vodka Cocktail Creamsicle Mojito.

The 15th annual ADI International Spirits Competition judged 950 entries from 295 distilleries and 34 countries in this year’s competition. Only 2% of entries earned a Double Gold Award, 8% earned a Gold Award, 35% earned a Silver Award, and 32% earned Bronze Medals.

“Earning the Best of Class and Best of Category and three other medals is a true honor, said Rob Goldstein, Co-Founder and Chief Revenue Officer. “When we became a distillery in 2019, it was very important that we developed innovative, delicious cocktails to go along with the high-quality spirits we were offering. When COVID forced us to close our taproom for several months in March 2020, our customers and retailers demanded that we find a way to bring our cocktails to the masses. This is how our ready-to-drink cocktail program was born. We’re thrilled to win these awards as we prepare to open a new brewery and distillery in downtown Atlanta, featuring our award-winning beers and cocktails.”

Wild Leap will open their newest location in Atlanta’s Centennial Yards in early fall of 2022.
