Beersmith Joins Three Former Champs in Juicy Burger Cup Final 4
The results are in, and we have our 2022 Juicy Burger Cup Final Four! The heat is getting real now, with less than a week until Beijing’s best burger will be crowned.
Vote in the final four:
Defending burger champ Slow Boat continue in their quest for a sixth win, beating out rival brewpub Great Leap. Meanwhile, 2017 champions Q MEX ousted Jing-A, meaning they will now meet Slow Boat in the Final Four in a fight of the champions.
In the battle of the sliders there was surprise victory for Beersmith who knocked out last year’s fourth place competitor Slider Nation, the biggest upset of the round. Elsewhere in upsets, newcomer and dark horse Wild Kite’s burger hopes were dashed with Home Plate managing to just sneak past them by an extremely close margin.
Beersmith is the only contender left that has not held the crown, will they be able to overcome the odds and claim the winning title?
