Be aware that Urban Brewing may not be open, it's been closed the last two days...

If tomorrow isn't a runner, would Sunday be a potential option with Urban?

I know there's still a matter of volunteers time, but might be easier than next week with Alltech on if there's a lot of judges from the industry at that

Nah but was just looking for some immediate yays or nays before going anywhere with it.

Hi Folks,

A decision has been made.

We've decided that the most sensible approach is to postpone the competition, with Saturday 24th March being the provisional new date, in the Urban.

Apologies for the short notice; we wanted to give this every chance to go ahead but, in the end, the safety of everyone involved in making the competition run successfully had to be given priority.


More information to follow.


Thanks,

-Barry

I don't believe this, how could you have not prepared for this by having Sherpas and Snowmobiles on standby!! The Norwegian Homebrew competition never had this problem!

In all seriousness, it's the right call to make, and you did wait til as late as reasonably to give the benefit of the doubt in case of a chance of it going ahead.

Can't make the 24th myself but hopefully it'll be a more suitable date for other judges that were not available tomorrow originally.
