World beard championships end in Germany with more fascination.

The World beard championships with most impressive, longest, and biggest set on display at the International German Beard Championships over the weekend.

This year annual beard championship in Bad Schussenried in German State of Baden-Württemberg was tough and there have been many participants from all over, from the USA, France, Austria, Switzerland and the Netherland they all travelled to Germany with the hope of coming the crown beard king, said the organizer Wolfgang Stier late on Saturday.

The competition was decided by 7 member jury judged competitors facial hair in 18 categories, that includes ‘’Kaiser empire moustache,’’ ‘’freestyle whiskers,’’ ‘’musketeer chin beard’’ and natural beards with style moustache.’’

And the highest scorer of championship was Jens Müller from Pforzheim in Baden-Württemberg with his ‘’trendy beard,’’ and Lutz Giese from Berlin both were awarded 49.5 point out of a possible 50.

While an American Aarne Bielefeld won the freestyle full beard category, then Albert Schmid from Switzerland took back home the prize for the best beard with a stylish moustache.
