Beer World Cup XI: All Country Line-Ups
Squad announcements, country by country
Follow the tournament on X: #BeerWorldCupXI.
This is where each country's squad lives. Seed status, manager's problem, likely starters, wildcards, selection controversies — football scouting reports, not beer encyclopaedia entries. Squads land here as they're revealed, and update when Pub VAR, the Selection Committee or The Pint Desk rule on disputed picks.
Example squad — the format
Each country page reads like this:
🇧🇪 Belgium
- Seed status
- Tournament favourite
- Manager's problem
- Too much depth
- Likely starters
- Orval, Duvel, Saison Dupont, Rochefort
- Wildcard
- Cantillon Gueuze
- Selection controversy
- Leaving out half the country
This is an illustrative example — not Belgium's locked squad. Actual squads roll out alongside the real fixtures.
Squads as they land
No country squads published yet. The first reveal is England, planned ahead of their group-stage opener against Ghana on Tuesday 23 June.
