Great to see black IPA find a home within the new specialty IPA category, so hopefully the judging of this will be a bit better now.

& session, standard & double strengths in there too. Good stuff. Lots of new additions too. Did the Irish Red get an overhaul?

To brew:  2015 RIS, Kellerbier, Altbier.

Pretty sure. I should have the draft in the next couple of days so will report back.

Good stuff. Cheers Ali. Im guessing this revision is the reason we haven't got our test results back.

The two ought to be mutually exclusive. You're only just outside the 16 week window on results, but I'll see what I can find out about where they are in the system.

Er, eh? That is some departure from the previous categories!
Festbeer! Kellerbeer. Jeez!

Nice to see Golden Ale makes an appearance in English bitter category
closely followed by Australian sparkling ale.

Some work must have gone into that, and I can't wait to get a
proper read through it.
