BJCP Course 2015?

[johnrm]

Any info on this? Cost? How long it takes? How many sessions approx? What happens if sessions are missed? Etc.

Something like this... (All rough)

Decide the style and subcategory examples that are available/you want to cover.
Aiming for 3 categories or so per session means 7 sessions – Say 12 tasters per session.
Assuming all 500ml (some will differ) – 1 x 500ml should cover 4 persons.
Cost = E4 (average) per 500ml x 12 (per session) x 7 (sessions) / 4 persons = E84 ea.

Now its early days yet but I suggest ye all read post #13 here:



In the exam you are not judging beers! You are trying to match the proctors numbers!

Illogical I know but its the reality of statistics.

[Will_D]

Agreed but a fair bit of your score is calculated from how closely you match their scores (20% iirc)!

[johnrm]

Yes, that too, plus the 'Rape me please' tax from DHL for about E50 or so.

Lets get two shipped together. We need one for the Galway bjcp nights. I can get them shipped to friends of mine in San Francisco & they can strip the package of customs stuff so we can avoid the charges.

[Rossa]

There is a company in Dublin that might do them. I'll have a poke around.
