How did liffey rate the beers? Is the results posted maybe I cant see for looking?

[mr.drankin]

I'm quite happy with that although they were the 2 beers I didnt think had a hope lol

[Bazza]

I know what you mean, Dave. My steam beer was thrown in as an afterthought; a 'hang on, if I'm helping organise this thing I should at least enter something'. Whereas my tried and trusted trump card i.e the Cornish IPA, didn't feature. Just goes to show. Comps like this are a good way of keeping you on your toes.

I had a rye ale, and thought it was one of the best brews I've made, but I suppose each to there own. I think I gave you a bottle when you were collecting Barry.

Had your rye last night, Dave. Very impressed. Nicely balanced, clean tasting and went down as easy as an A****h g*** i*  M*galuf.
