A business award has been given to the Otago University Students' Association, for its Dunedin Craft Beer and Food Festival.

Held in October last year, the festival has been named the best beer event in Otago and Southland.

The accolade comes from the national Society of Beer Advocates.

Society members say the festival brought craft beer to the attention of a huge number of people, in an efficient and friendly atmosphere.

About 4.000 people attended the event at Forsyth Barr Stadium.

It was the second time the festival had been held by the students association.
