Films: 2011 Beard Team USA Championships

Beard Team USA - an amazing inspiration for Bro Council's first full length documentary. In honor of "Throwback Thursday" we decided to re-post the video that kick-started our dedication to bearding at Bro Council.

Back in 2011, Bro Council visited Lancaster, PA to check out the Beard Team USA National Championships. Ray and guest judge Justin Hartwig went behind the scenes for a look at this awesome "Bro Council, Approved" event. People came from around the US (and around the world) to be judged in 5 categories: Moustache, Partial Beard, Full Beard Groomed, Full Beard Natural, and Freestyle. In addition to Justin, the judges for the event were Miss Pennsylvania Juliann Sheldon, Roller Derby Star Josie Cuervo, Phil Thiel from America's National Rugby Team, and bearding legend Willi Chevalier from Germany. If you don't know who Willi is just take look at this picture:
